[SoaS] Fwd: Blueberry Screen Resolution

[Bert Freudenberg]

I think changing the resolution in the Terminal activity should work - enter

	xrandr -s 1024x768

I'm not sure if Virtual Box supports the non-standard 1200x900 resolution. VMWare does, in OLPC images there used to be a xorg-vmware.conf for that purpose. Have not tried with SoaS though.
