[nmglug] Booting in Usable Res in X

[Robert Bond]

Hi Andres,

Or more simply, when you're looking at the scrambled SXVGA login screen,
press the Num Lock key (so it's on), then hold down Ctrl and Alt and
then hit the plus key on the numeric keypad.  Each time you do this, it
should go to another resolution (assuming you have more than one
resolution listed in your conf file).

I didn't try it in Fedora at the moment but it works in RH9.
