Me too at 1600x1200 even with a 21" Nokia the text can still be illegible 

It's probably not too big of a deal.  I have it set to default to 1280x1024 so
I am happy.  Say is it just me or does RedHat distribution change all
standards,  for instance the XF86Config file is in /etc/X11 and is called
XF86Config-4 and the rc.d / init.d stuff is not like any other distribution. 
Is this the norm for bsware as well since it is based on RedHat?

Thanks,
