Very Computer

        I have recently installed XFree86 3.3.2 and
can't seem to get rid of the virtual desktop setting
someplace in the distribution.  I set up my XF86Config
and have the virtual settings commented out.  But yet
I get a virtual desktop of 1280x1024.  I usually run
at 1024x768 and do not need the extra real estate.
I am using fvwm for my desktop.  I have check the
usual places for the virtual desktop setting.  Could
it be compiled into the X binary?  Any sound suggestions
on how to turn this off will be appreciated.

TIA,
j.m.

Microsoft, beware the penguin! Choice of a GNU Generation. Do be do be

Change it to match the resolution you want to run (basically, setting it
up so that your running in 1024x768 with a virtual display set at
1024x768... thus, no virtual display. )
I've found that is what I had to do.

It'll fix your problem. However, if you Ctrl-Alt-<plus> through the
resolutions, you'll see that other resolutions will have the virtual
display set at 1024 (or whatever you make it).

Cheers,
