1366 X 768 seems like a strange resolution to have by default. I have never
used that resolution before. What kind of hardware are you running? My
laptop setup only gives me the options for 1024 x 768, 800 x 600, 848 x 480,
720 x 480, 640 x 480 in the Monitor Preferences section. Your monitor and
video card can make a difference in the resolutions which are available to
you.
