Hi, Matt,

To set your virtual screen size, add a virtual line in
/etc/X11/XF86Config.  Here's a bit from my /etx/X11/XF86Config:

    Subsection "Display"
        Depth       32
        Modes       "1024x768"
        ViewPort    0 0
        Virtual     1024 768
    EndSubsection

This is from the Screen section toward the end of the file under the X
server you're running.  I use a screen resolution of 1024x768, so I set
the virtual screen to 1024 768.  To mount your CD-ROM and floppy, add
these lines to /etc/fstab:

/dev/fd0        /mnt/floppy     auto   
sync,user,noauto,nosuid,nodev,unhide    0       0
/dev/cdrom      /mnt/cdrom      auto   
user,noauto,nosuid,exec,nodev,ro        0       0

Then reboot, or as root, do 'mount -a'.  To unmount, do 'umount
/mnt/floppy (or /mnt/cdrom)'.  Remember, nothing can be accessing these
mounted directories if you want to unmount them, so you can't be in
these directories when issuing the umount command.  Good luck,



Hidong
