Hello, I am ruuning the latest XFree86 on a slack 9.1 box with a dual 
head Nvidia card, with Twinview configured to display a single 2048x768 
screen. It works very very well. The only problem is when I switch 
screen modes, (ctrl-alt-+) so I can use just a single monitor, I end up 
with a single monitor with a virtual desktop that is still 2048x768 
instead of a 1024x768 monitor with no virtual space.

Is there a way to specify different virtual modes with every screen mode?

here is a snippet of my xf86config.
