subject: screen resolution as head

I am new to the raspberry pi but not to Linux.  My plan is to connect to
the Raspberry Pi through VNC but with no screen, keyboard etc attached to
the RP.

I have managed to do this using my Ubuntu machine as client and it works
fine except for the screen resolution.

When I have a screen physically attached to the RP, the image on my
client screen is fine.  However, when there is no screen attached the
image on my client drops to 640X480 which means that icons look huge and
windows overlap the screen size.

I need to tell the RP that it has a high resolution screen even when none
is attached.

Any ideas?

Best Regards,
             Jack Fearnley, enthusiastic new user.
