You would have a couple of lines in xorg.conf like these
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Virtual 1600 1200       <-
                Viewport  0 0           <-
                Depth     24
        EndSubSection
EndSection

Meaning my desktop is bigger than my physical screen (which is 1200 x  
768), and you slide around.  For some reason the big new suites like  
gnome and KDE won't permit it.  I can't stand anything that doesn't  
rely on pure text file configuration.
