Sorry, i haven't read the thread until right now.

xrandr --output VGA --mode 1280x1024: it changes the resolution to
1280x, but for some reason the size of the words is bigger, and i need
to change "appearance" and set the sizes smaller, but it "works", more
or less.

Thank you very much for your help.
