Ah ha!

My screen is 1400x1050.  I guess that means I can't go to 1280x1024?

Should I be able to configure it for 1280x950?

What exactly is the point of full screen mode if I can't go all the
way up to the size of my screen?

And why don't I get an error message anywhere telling me this isn't
going to work?

Looking forward to 1.6.2...
