>In order to get full-screen MOL to work try the following:

>1) Lanuch an xterm or whatever
>2) type "fbset" at the command prompt. This should give you your present
settings. Mine looks something like:

>mode "1152x870-92"
> # D: 100.00 MHz, H: 83.893 kHz, V: 92.190 Hz
> geometry 1152 870 1152 870 32
> timings 10000 16 16 16 16 8 8
> rgba 8/16,8/8,8/0,8/24
>endmode
>
>3) edit /etc/fb.modes and add the output you just recieved from the fbset
command. (NOTE: don't add the line that starts with "rgba".)
>4) quit X
>5) startmol

>Full screen should work. Hope that helps. Worked for me, anyway.
