Hey guys.
I have applied the span hack to my 12in ibook

In preferences it shows my crt dell D1025TM (17in sony trinitron tube)

There are several resolutions but when i intent to change it above 1024x768 it changes but the space in my monitor does not change.

In greater resolution the screen viweable area is reduced, it does not helpme to have 1600x1200 on my monitor, just scales the 1024x768 resolution in my monitor.

This is how it�s supposed to work??? (i don't think so)
What i`m doing wrong???
there`s something wrong with my monitor?
How can i fix this??

Did you try adjusting the refresh frequency? I noticed problems until I did that, if I remember correctly.
My opinions are my own, and not those of anybody else, including my employer.
