"tao" is my new quad optplex that refuses to display above
1280x1024. my "working" system is dubbed "ethos". it's got
1920x1080 which is what I want own my new computer. DEspite
the token that are shown after the lines of resolution, the
output on "tao is only 1280x1024. {for some reason I cannot get
a ksnapshot of my scrren resolution; I'm missing kio_file.}
