I agree. But what Thayer is saying is simply that if it looks really ugly, it makes arch look less polished, graphically. I dunno, I'm on the fence here. I like seeing the little logo on boot, but if it starts to look really ugly, I probably wouldn't like it anymore. > Now to the problem: My native resolution is 1280x800, but I have found > no way to get this resolution in framebuffer.

I wasn't thinking right - I actually don't have a widescreen setup at home with arch. All my monitors are square 8) Maybe I'll boot an install CD on my 17" laptop to see.
