Hey Newguy2,

I had a similar problem and had to disable compatibility mode under settings > Spare parts
Not sure if it will help  you though!

Cheers

that's what i did, i guess i made it sound like spare parts didn't work, but it did. i just wanted to give anyone else who may run into the same problem a heads up. thanks though.

Is this anything to do with why I am not getting a sharp image on my 1024x600 tablet?

I could be wrong, but did you try creating a new resolution/orbiter size?

I did not, I wasn't sure what good it would do - 1024x600 is the exact resolution I need.

I wish I'd tried the touchorbiter before I flashed the tablet to honeycomb.

It did make a difference on my phone, doesn't hurt to try.  I tried that prior to finding the spare parts app.  thanks to the app and making a new orbiter resolution/size, the orbiter works great.

Thank you for the various pointers. Ultimately, it was spare parts with compatibility mode switched OFF that solved it. The creation of the new resolution was not necessary for me either, although that did work also. FYI I was able to uninstall spare parts after compatibility mode had been disabled, and it still works. Thanks again.

Cheers,
Matt.
