Ie 1cm for 24 bit and 1 inch for 8bit colour. Can you send me the output of fbset -i please? Is anyone else seeing this problem with the current debs?

Oh no, looks like the 'fix' for those problems doesn't work for everybody :( What depths have you tried? Can you try others? Yes I have tried 800x600 and 640x480 and those modes were ok it was only my default 1024x756 which was the problem. It works ok on xf3 but not xf4 which is why I suspected there may be a bug somewhere:( Daryl Moulder -- - When everything is not as square as it may seem.
