Man... all these meetings you guys are having sound cool. Field trips
and all?!? Looks like we have a date now... we'll be moving out there
the first week of June.
So, I found something interesting. I'm running rh8 on my laptop (dell
inspiron 8200). When I shut the lid or the screen goes off to conserve
battery power, the resolution is stretched funny when it comes back on
(or when I open it up.) It's about twice as wide as it is tall, and
only half the screen (with crazy proportions) is showing. In the
display settings, I made sure it was using the correct (I think) monitor
and that the physical size is set. Tho... I use a ruler to find the
physical size. Still...same stuff.
The only way to fix it is to restart X. I just use ctrl-alt-bksp.
Has anyone seen this before?
Matt
