Hi, guys.  I installed Ubuntu recently, and made the switch from XFree86 
to X.org.  All things, more-or-less, went smoothly, with one sorta-odd 
exception: my 1600sw LCD, which has a resolution of 1600x1024, seems to 
now have a virtual desktop of approx 1600x1050 -- just enough that the 
bottom Gnome panel is off-screen.  If I mouse down, it comes up... but 
then the top panel goes away.  I just want it to get to the "real" 
resolution.  Needless to say, "1600x1024" are the only resolutions 
mentioned in my xorg.conf file, most of which I pilfered from my (fully 
functional) XF86Config-4 file.
I've Googled, to no apparent avail.
I've got the Number 9 card (as opposed to the Glint card) -- the only 
two cards that directly support this poor monitor.
Any suggestions/ideas/etc.?
-Ken
