Yep. Basically, if you have more than one screen mode defined you are able
to zip between them with the previously mentioned key combo. Note that you
also need something disabled in your XF86Config - it's called
DontEnableZoom, or something. Sometimes this line can be uncommented,
although I'd be 99% sure your's'll be fine.

Yep, but you'll need to read up on how the file works. It's pretty easy
once you get the hang of it, and the file is very well commented mostly,
so a lot of it's obvious.
