In case someone doesn't know, Ctrl+Alt plus the plus or minus keys *on
the numeric keypad* cycle through the resolutions defined in the X
configuration file. The desktop resolution doesn't change, though: you
get to use the mouse to scroll around the screen.

So if you normally run in 1600 by 1200, you can go down to 640 by 480 to
take a look at the details.

I like using this for reading webcomics, which *do* get fuzzy on 1600 by
1200 on a 17" CRT, and obviously don't get scaled up by Mozilla.

Hope this helps,

James.
