N40 RESET BUTTON AND 1280X1024 DISPLAY QUESTION

ITEM: RTA000042801



QUESTION:                                                                       
I have 2 questions on the new N40. In the manual it says I change the           
resolution to 1280x1024 by typing the command "chres -X 1280x1024".             
When I type this it complains: Unknown resolution names 1280x1024.              
Possible values are Intvga Extvga and Vga. Is this suppose to work,             
or is it a misprint in the manual?                                              
                                                                                
Second question, how do I do a reset if the system locks up with 888? I         
have read the manual twice and found no reference to the use of a reset         
switch. I have fixed this by removing the battery, but this is tricky.

ANSWERS TO YOUR QUESTIONS:                                                      
To do a reset, one must press the pause key + R.  To use the display           
at 1280x1024, type fbconfig -X 1280x1024 before starting X-windows.
