[Peter Belew <abcruzww@xxxxxxxxx>]

I just booted from the original 10 December live CD. In this case, the
login screen appears to be something like 1600x1200, clipped to the
upper-left 1024x768 which this panel will display. The small login
'window' thus appears in the lower-right of the screen, but is
accessible. Once logged in, I still see a 1600x1200 screen, but I can
set the resolution to 1024x768. I checked the date of openchrome_drv.so,
and it's the same (the date in the above comment is Pacific Standard
Time). So I believe the change is not in that module, but rather in some
other component.

Hopefully this time for the change (sometime between 04:00 and 16:00 UTC
on 11 Dec) will be of help in tracking down what changed.

This bug appeared overnight (Pacific Time) after the initial CD alpha-1
release. Note that my installation was from the Alternate CD, while
today's test was from the Desktop/Live CD.

Note that tty console displays are unusable - the screen is all black -
but Alt-F7 does usually work to switch back to X.
