This is not the whole truth.
A /set/ of resolutions is compiled into the kernel, so you /can/ choose 
whether which resolution you want to use in the bootloader under RiscOS. 
This may not fit your monitor too well though, but you can change the 
resolution later with... erm, I think it's called setvideo now and you 
can use the mode definition file (MDF) which you use under RiscOS here.
The modes the VOYAGER kernels have compiled in (from the config file 
for this kernel which can be suped) are 1024*768 @ 70, 1024*768 @ 60, 
800*600 @ 60, 640*480 @ 60, 1280*1024 and 1152*900.

Hope this helps,

Markus
