    Hello,

    I have a 1600x1200 and millions of colors capable LCD and Graphics
    card. However when I set the resolution from Desktop->System
    Settings->Display to 1600x1200, after rebooting the GUI, it does
    panning from a base resolution od 1280x1024 (quite anoying!!). Digging
    around I found there is another tool in Desktop->Preferences->"Screen
    Resolution" This tool doesnt let me get past 1280x1024 no matter what!

    I had to go back to the Display Settings an put it back to 1280x1024 to
    avoid the annoying panning.

    The odd thing is that this used to work fine on FC3. I still have it
    installed on a different partition and I can boot it and set it to
    1600x1200. I'd really really appreciate any ideas.
