Question: How do I get the screen resolution down to where I can set the screen resolution and click the apply icon? I can't get the screen resolution page to move up and down to click the icon that is under the bottom bar at the bottom of the screen to click it!

Answer: 
I'd suggest using `xrandr` to change the screen resolution. `xrandr -s 1280x1024` in a terminal should change the resolution to 1280 by 1024, for example.
In my case it works to use the workspace below it. Than you can see the second half of the window. Hope it works for you aswell.

It's just a solution to press the apply button...
