Hi,

My scaling mode is stuck in full aspect, really need it in full.  My xrandr command results
in a failed request.   Hopefully just a syntax problem.   Any ideas.

THX

EDIT :   correct syntax exactly req'd is, and must be exact,

xrandr --output LVDS1 --set "scaling mode" Full

Unfortunately the change that takes affect has no effect on the problem,
getting DosBox full in the screen, not full aspect.   Still searching then.
