    My NEC 19inch lcd only goes to 1280x1024 8-(

    update: changed boot/parallel to 'no', but have not rebooted yet. Did
    'init 5' to get errors from ~/.xsession-errors and kde started
    correctly. Going to reboot to see if it will work again. Surely the
    change from parallel yes to no did not affect going from runlevel 3 to 5.
