Thanks for the help guys. To resize my screen I had to go through the GUI part and change it but unlike Microsoft it makes me reboot in order for it to take affect which sucks. The Ctrl Alt +/- does not work.
Geez! What am I doing wrong? I've been using this for *years*.
Recall thye aprt I said "... to get multiple resolutions"? Apparently you don't have multiple resolutions yet.
I have 4 resolutions that I cycle through using <ctrl>-<alt> with numeric keypad + or -.
If you find your xorg.conf file, see if you have a line similar to this
Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
If not, you only have a single fixed resolution and the <ctl> thingy has nothing to do.
