Thanks for your mail Todd and trying to help me out.

I have tried sax2 -r the displayes goes blank with some console
messages and comes back finally to "SaX2 : X11 Configuration" after
that no matter what resolution I choose it is always fixed to 800x600
54 Hz.

If I did something wrong, please let me know.
