The RPM for Fedora Core 2 seems to work just fine on Core 3.

(The graphics window got smaller, but I'm sure there is a setting
for that.)

That would be good news. I really don't know how the graphics window
became so big at some stage. (MacOS X is just cute here: tiny, sharp,
fast graphics window.)

I have the opposite problem, a 1680x1050 display.

Has the options()printcmd reappeared, so that dev.print() works without
changing default options?

I can't imagine how this would change.  This is the same "old"
RPM, not a new one.  The option is there, and I don't think it
ever disappeared.  I can't test it.  This is my laptop, which is
not set up to print anything.

My mistake.  The default print command is determined at configure time.
But the RedHat RPMS are built in a sandbox that has only the minimal
configuration needed to build R. This doesn't include the lpr package so
the default print command is null. I will fix this in the next RPM
release, but right now I am upgrading to FC3. 

An RPM for Fedora Core 3 should be on a CRAN mirror near you by the
weekend. This fixes the printcmd bug.

The X11() window is the right size for me, but it doesn't have a title
bar, which is a nuisance.
