Example:
"C:\Programs\The Ur-Quan Masters\UQM.exe" -r800*600
(or) -r800x600 (or ) -r 800*600 (or) -r 800x600
Right Click your UQM shortcut. Click properties. Edit the end of your "target" with -r?*?
Where the "?" is the resoulution you'd like to use, such as: 640*480, 800*600, 1024*768, ect.

Interesting side note; meep-eep's typo just showed me that M$ owns the DNS entry for http (type in http://http/ in a browser and see where it takes you). Smart move on their part.

Interesting side note; meep-eep's typo just showed me that M$ owns the DNS entry for http (type in http://http/ in a browser and see where it takes you). No they don't. http would be a top level domain, and no top level 'http' domain exists. Maybe your browser tries to add stuff to a domain name if the the actual typed in name does not exist. Maybe such a thing is done by the resolver library itself. Or perhaps you're using Internet Explorer, and that browser redirects all failed domain lookups to a site of its own. Or perhaps your browser considers all invalid domain names as search terms, and uses them as input to some search engine. Or, as a final alternative, a DNS record for "http" exists in a domain in your system's domain search list. For example, looking up "http://www/" on my machine (irrespective of browser) redirects to my ISP's home page. You see, if you lose the final dot in the domain name (which almost everyone does!), the domain name resolver is allowed to check other domains than the top-level one, such as the domain your machine is in (e.g. "example-isp.net."). Also, some DNS servers have been known to respond with fake host addresses instead of reporting an unknown name.

Hmm, wasn't thinking (nor testing). Konqueror doesn't do this, but the weird thing is that Firefox on the same linux machine _did_. I tried going to http://http.com, http://http.net, http://http.org in Konq and wasn't able to reproduce FF's results. wget gives identical results to konq. Maybe something screwy w/ my FF build?

Thanks for the help I was stumped on how to change the resolution on my screen.....looking at that small screen with the defaults was making my eyes cross.
