The demo is pretty short, so you'll probably finish it faster than you'd
like to ;). Besides, I imagine that at least this bug is fixed; there
might be others though.

The only way is to configure your X Server accordingly. The NEWBIE file
gives some hints on this. Dunno where it ends up after installing the
debian package. Most likely in /usr/doc/adonthell.

However, the 0.3.3 release will have an option to double the resolution,
and 0.4 and beyond will use 640x480 as default.

Yeah that would be nice. It shouldn't be necessary for wastesedge
though, as it doesn't contain any binaries. So it should work for any
architecture. If you make them available somewhere, somebody (Alex?) can
add them to the other packages.
