Re: Nvidia GeForce4 card in a Dell laptop

Thanks everyone for your input.  We are still unable to get the
login screen to fill up the entire physical monitor.  However
once we login in and hit "fn" and "f7" together, the screen enlarges
to fill up the complete physical monitor.  Does that help isolate
the problem.  The monitor is unknown; the Dell laptop is a "latitude."


Original question:


We just installed RH 9.0 on a dell laptop with a Nvidia GeForce4
video card.  We took the suggestions for video from the installation
program.   We ended up with a system whose window just takes up
the middle third of the available screen.  All the terminal windows
that open up take up the entire system window.  Nothing is created
in the black two thirds of the screen surrounding the system window.

How do we extend the system window to take up the entire available
screen?
