options not saving etc

[Jeff MacDonald]

Well, I was able to reproduce it as root. 

The font size thing and the konsole things have both turned out to
either be tricks of my imagination, or I was just using it wrong last
time. ha !

However, the resolution thing is definatly not working as i would
expect [note, i didn't say it was broken] each time i start KDE, it
picks the highest res it can [2000x1500something.. @ 60hz] which makes
my eyes bleed and i have to set it back down to 1600x1200 at 75hz.

I know I can set it in xorg.conf, but shouldn't it save my resolution
preferances ?

Thanks.
