I think that should work. You might be able to do that, but it would be at the expense of losing vertical resolution. The best way to solve it is to add a DisplaySize line to your xorg.conf file to specify a display size with an aspect ration of 16:9. Something like: DisplaySize 400 225 Myth will then output 16:9 to fill the screen and 4:3 with vertical black bars either side. -- Mark Smith - Surrey, UK http://www.chez-moi.org.uk/
