Yes personal preferences were set to 1680 x 1050. I guess I confused
myself because the icons etc. appeared bigger and cleaner than I
expected. However, I have lost my trash icon. gConfig-editor =>
Nautilus doesn't restore it. -- ?? That's a minor problem for tomorrow.
But it still begs the question; why doesn't xorg.conf reflect the
addition of my new LCD display?
