What is interesting is that the files are *not* changed to 1024*768 on login/boot even though the screen size is set to 1024*768 (& when I press the monitor's preferences button it says it's running at 1024*768 75 Hz vertical & 67 kHz horizontal refresh rates, rather than the USER MODE HF: 68.5 kHz VF 75 Hz that shows up with 1152*870). change settings under OS X with TextEdit, restart change settings under OS X with TextEdit, logout, loginģ. change settings under OS 9.04 with BBEdit Lite 4.6 and boot into OS XĢ.
