Oh, right. Get_Screen_Size() creates an object graphics window
in order to determine the dimensions of the display.

You could write your own Get_Screen_Size()function and put
it on your path ahead of IDL's. You will have to hard code
your display resolution into the function. My display is
1680 by 1050.

Function Get_Screen_Size
RETURN, [1680,1050]
END

I don't know anything about Unbuntu, except that the latest
version "sucks." :-)

Cheers,

David
