Yup, lots of us have this feature. I even reported the raised res. subterfuge previously. On some earlier SW/HW combos, reducing it back to 1024x768 after overrunning at a higher res, (dangerous!) worked, but not now. Otherwise, I have temporarily given up on Slacko until mick has a stroke of inspiration or resurrects stuff in his shed. Or both.I specified 1024x768x16 for my video in xorg, to suit my poor eyesight and crap monitor, and xorg then informed me I had an SIS chipset and it needed tweaking or something, answer yes or no to proceed with tweak..
Since SiS chipsets were used on ECS boards, the largest manu. in the world by a very large margin, and since silver surfers (most with contracting eyeballs!) are in a large majority, this 'feature' needs urgent attention by this young, healthy, hyper-active (definitely an asset in this game!) and extremely talented developer.
Got that, too. You'll never persuade BK to shift on the issue of browsers, but you'll find Opera doesn't crash. Did I see that Chrome is also more reliable? Midori, on the other hand may do most of what you need?which promptly crashed on testing youtube
