M6: wrong resolution.

Installed M6 from scratch and have checked that SAX2 says resolution is 1680
by 1050. Unfortunately it’s obviously wrong - everything is stretched
sideways - as if a 4:3 aspect has been squashed to fit 16:9.

Hardware listing from YAST says I have three(!) monitors instead of one - a
Dell E228WFP. Graphics card - only the one - is Radeon HD 2400 PRO.

Panic over. Simply went into SAX2 and said OK to what was displayed for the
resolution. Rebooted and at first all was still distorted, but once I was
past the GRUB panel the display looked OK. This was confirmed once I was
logged in to KDE.
