Normally a monitor saves the settings for earch resolution, try the following: change the width of your screen in X switch to console and everything will look normally (if the resolution/refresh rate between console and X differ offcourse) than switch back to X and look at the tiny screen. Unless if you have an old mechanical monitor where you should manually replace your magnets :D this won't work in that case. -- http://www.de-brauwer.be
