Dell 2707WFP 27 inch Ultrasharp Wid LCD Screen on Linux

My new Dell 2707 27" arrived two days ago. I was using 19" Viewsonic LCD. New screen was automatically detected by Ubuntu Linux. All I had to do was switch to 1920x1200 screen resolution from old 1440x900. LCD screen is absolutely beautiful and provides sharp clear images.

congrats! +) Dell’s monitors are definitely the best.

How do you organize your desktop? Have you tried tiled-WMs, like wmii or ion3?

Thanks.

Currently, I’m using old program called gimmie. Can you tell me more about wmii or ion3? Have you tried these programs?

Excuse me, but 1920×1200 and 27″??
That’s for nearly blind people, 1920×1200 should go on 23″ or smaller.
