Well, i tried this and it seemed to work pretty well.  Only about 1 inch 
of black was left on the left side of the screen, but the screen 
wouldn't move any more to the left.  I'm going to try the instructions 
from SuSE next.

Thanks.  It's nice to know that i can move the image on the screen 
around like that.
