Well, it is somehow related to the X configuration...

With the configuration below, X starts in 1024x768 instead of 1280x1024
- why (then, KDE switches to 1280x1024, but the panel stays at 1024 px)?


I even added:

     Option "PanelSize" "1280x1024"

but it doesn't make any difference - X starts in 1024x768.

So - how can I start X in 1280x1024 when I use "IgnoreEDID"    "on" option?
