By virtual terminal, you mean a non graphical text based console, right? In
which case, it sounds like you need to adjust your monitor! Remember that
text mode uses a different screen mode (resolution, frequency) than the X
display, so you'll need to adjust your monitor for both. Most monitors have
small memorys which can 'remember' your adjustments for each mode, so you
should only need to do this once.
