Thanks Manuel,

The problem was with the symlink.  It didn't work with XF86_Mach64 though=
,=20
but with the XF86_SVGA.

Now I am back to square one with my desktop (kde) larger than my screen w=
hich=20
requires me to move the mouse to the bottom of the screen to scroll the=20
desktop down etc.  Do you know how to get a normal screen-size desktop ba=
ck??

Balteo.
