two small questions

[steve%prd.co.uk@localhost (Steve Blinkhorn)]

On my 7.x and 8.x machines the device probe phase occurs using the
full width of my (1920x900) screen in gree in a small font, and continues 
using the full width of the screen but in white.

On 9.2 the device probe phase occupies the full width of the screen in
a large green font, but switches to a narrower section of the screen
when it goes to a smalll white font for the daemon startups etc.  

1. Where are the settings that control this behaviour?  I want my full
screen back!

2. My keyboard layout is uk, but when I start up X it goes to us.
I presumably need to change something in /etc/xorg.conf.  What I can
find on the web assumes a far greater familiarity with X configuration
than I am ever likely to achieve
