How to change resolution?

Hey everyone,
is it possible to change the resolution of an irrlichtDevice, without dropping and re-creating the Device?
And by the way, how can I create a camera that don't looks the whole time to the 0 Vector? (or any other point). I want that the angels of the camera don't change if I move the camera. (sorry, I'm new to Irrlicht and don't know how to achieve this behaviour).
best regards
Sylar

a) not possible without hw driver-specific code
b) check setTarget

Can I (after I re-created the Device), restore my old sceneManger, GUI and so on? Something like:

You can serialize and deserialize the scene.

Saving the scene, destroy the device, create new device, load the scene.

Maybe one could go into the source code of the IrrlichtDevice, and copy whatever's in the destructor/drop function, and remove the code that removes all resources, and make a new function out of that.

That's not possible for the fullscreen toggle, because usually the context is lost. This means that all ressources have to be recreated anyway. Changing the window size should be possible during run-time, though.
