[SailfishDevel] R: R: change resolution of the emulator?

[Jarko Vihriala]

And do notice if you change resolution with VBoxManage some of the apps 
on ui might not act accordingly, so if f.ex width of an app is fixed to 
some value, it does not get altered. So our advice is not to tweak the 
resolution.
