That is normal on laptops. It means you are 
using a resolution smaller than the maximum
resolution of the screen. What are you on
currently? 640x480 is the default for Xvesa.
I suggest you up it to 800x600. If you are
already on 800x600, I suggest you try 1024x760

I had it on 800x600x15. There are no higher resolutions in

the setup script. However, Ive now put 1024x768x24 and

it now fills the whole screen + Opera is ok, great!  Thanks.

I did try just 1024x768 but Opera was giving the not enough

colors message. I think it was defaulting to 1024x768x4
