My workplace has lots of PC laptops running at 1024x768 screen resolution. We also have several LCD projectors that I assume run at the same resolution because they always project exactly what we see on the PC screens.
Today I connected my new 12-inch Powerbook (whose native resolution is also 1024x768) to two different projectors using the VGA adapter cable. In each case the projector was immediately recognized, but at a resolution of 800x600. My Powerbook automatically changed its resolution to 800x600 and projected this image on the screen. When I unplugged the projector, the Powerbook's resolution automatically reverted to 1024x768. I tried playing with the Displays control panel, but I can't find any way to project an image at the full 1024x768 resolution of the Powerbook. Has anyone else encountered (and solved) this problem?
