You will get an enormous desktop, you have set the "Virtual" to 1024x768
which means any resolution below 1024x768 will be virtalised as 1024x768
If you hit ctrl alt and the numeric + or - keys all at once you can change
the resolution, between what you have defined, 1024x768 is the only one
which will have the complete screen visable all at once.
