Well David-and-All, even though I switched back to Debian, I am running 6.9.4
from Zabbly. So I rebooted, have not noticed any changes. Out of the box I am

also totally blind, so just going by a text console.

Wow Chime, I'm impressed with the way you read the list. God love technology.
An auto-braille of sorts. That's cool.
The issue has been identified as an issue triggered by the virtualbox 7.0.18
driver (installed from PUEL - virtualbox-bin AUR package)
Christian caught the driver taint and I blacklisted the driver and tried 6.9.4
again -- and it correctly detected the resolution again.
The bug has been moved from Arch to Oracle:
https://www.virtualbox.org/ticket/22098
I've used this same box with virtualbox since Jan. 8, 2017, and have never
seen this issue before. There is apparently a regression somewhere, but since
it appears to be triggered by the virtualbox driver, we will work it from that
side.
