That is what I am using but it seems that sets the size of the GUI
(which i have configured to a slightly smaller than desktop size size in
Setup), not so much the size of the screen.  So my GUI winds up being
640x480 rather than the 570x430 or so that I have configured in Setup.
I make the GUI smaller than the screen so it fits inside the area of the
640x480 left after overscan.
