I want a sharp 1920x1080 image on the 1920x1080 external display.

I can get a fuzzy 1600x1200 image on the 1920x1080 external display.
Same for 1280x960 and 1024x768.

The laptop's 1600x1200 LCD is dead, but eCS thinks it is still working,
so only does 4x3 ratios, while I now want 16x9 ratios.

Under eCS 2.0, I have tried SNAP, Panoroma, and GRADD, and none
of them will do what I want.

I know that the hardware can do what I want, as both Windows XP and Linux
do it.
