As per usual, I never read this properly.
I tried changing :
Virtual 1280 1024
to Modes 1280 1024 without success
I then tried Modes 1280x1024 without success
Eventually I reread your mail and changed it as you said to Modes "1280x1024"
and it worked.........
Many thanks for your patience with a "slower than usual" person :-)
Merci beaucoup.
