    Subject: Screen size

    Greetings
    I recently installed FreeBSD 4.5 with desk top KDE using a CD that came
    with the book, FreeBSD Unleashed, by Michael Urban and Brian Tiemann.
    Everything seemed to go fine until I execute startx. The desktop
    environment on my screen "seems" to be at least four times as big as it
    should be, displaying only the top left portion of the desktop.

    The strange part of this problem is that the install program displays
    all of the display option screens in the correct size and font.

    Any advice to get me going will be appreciated.
