I now tried that too. Maybe this has something to do with DN> Ok, that's broken and should be fixed. I'll try and take a look at DN> it over the next couple of days... OK, but shouldn't you have an open bug number? I also note Larry likes his laptop in 800x600 mode has now become an impossible task in Debian. And apparently one day when it becomes possible, it will only be via tortuous cut and paste of dangerous (to the heath of one's monitor, if the numbers get garbled) xrandr output into one's xorg.conf. Or one could use xrandr in ~/.xsession, adding more wear and tear to the monitor. Also then the user must pick a MHz choice. I picked 75 hoping that it won't wear out my monitor or my eyes but I am just guessing. I recall in the old days one could just dpkg-reconfigure and pick one's favorite resolution. Be aware that those wishing to change resolutions might be http://www.useit.com/alertbox/seniors.html for whom documentation hunts end up in regrets. I.e., accessibility of your package is declining. Anyway, now that the pattern of this not being all my fault after all is slowly being revealed, maybe How does one type Ctrl+Alt+Keypad-Plus on a Thinpad r50e as the xorg.conf man page says? With shift+numlock I can type a keypad plus on tty1 but not in X: some keypad keys just move the mouse around, etc. also now does not work as advertised. Can someone please check?
