To OP (Bill) Try editing /etc/X11/xorg.conf see the section that looks like this... Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" "1280x960" "1280x800" "1280x720" "1152x864" "1152x768" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection (Note that the 'Modes' section is all on one line but will wrap into multiple lines in this e-mail.) Add "1400x1050" into that line (make it the first resolution because the first listed is the first tried). Then see what happens when you log out and log back in...I don't think it will take a restart to change it.
