I have a PowerBook G4 which is connected up to a 20" Monitor. When I set the monitor to mirror the Laptop the viewing area on the screen letterboxes and I get a big black border around the image. How do I make it fill the while screen?

Thanks :headphone

The PowerBook can do screen spanning. In that case, you can have the full resolution of your external screen.
