HINT: I'd say the keyboard sequence is attached to the hardware/firmware and will be same as under Mac OS X.... :) (So see the manual that came with the machine.)
Warmest regards

Will search for info on a kbd sequence. Second option was my original
attempt. Nothing on the projector until I crank X. Garbled screen with
the input stating 640x480 (from the projector menu). Unable so far to
change the projector's notion of the screen resolution I use in X.
Thanks - will keep fiddling,
