Hi John, thanks for helping me.
Unfortunately, this cure has not worked!
After reading your reply, I suddenly noticed that this offending line 
should *not* (as far as my limited knowledge goes), have made any 
difference - because it was REM-ed out with a |
I deleted it anyway, re-saved it, checked that the re-save had 
resulted in the file now being minus that line, then re-booted.
Result - no change. Display still huge, Display Manager cannot be 
altered.

By the way, the re-boot process reminded me of the other hiccup that I 
forgot to mention the first time:
After the Iyonix RO5 splash banner, I get  ERROR: Filename 
'UniServeFS' not recognised. and a Cancel button only offered. I duly 
cancel and after a short, but quite significant pause, it proceeds to 
the desktop.
Now what, please?
