Thanks for the help.
I've got it working now. What I ended up doing was adding
video=1600x900 to my boot / kernel command line to test and then
appended it in my grub menu.
I screwed around with font scaling with Gnome Tweak and also in
about:config of Firefox and Thunderbird but there was always something
that looked funny and some webpages didn't come out right.
setting my resolution to 1600x900 is a cheesy, yet effective, way to do
get what I need.
...Now if I can just get my touchpad to FRICK'N disable while typing.
Sean,
