Upthread you indicated <https://support.dynabook.com/support/staticContentDetail?contentId=638291&isFromTOCLink=false> provided the specifications for your laptop. They conflict with the above 2560x1080 commands, at 1440x900. Are you using this laptop with 2 displays? With only an external display? My reading of this thread before now suggests use only of the laptop's 1440x900 display, and that's what my previous comments and suggestions were directed to. > You are correct, they do not persist when entered this way.
