[OpenLayers-Users] Overview map resolution difficulties

I am using OpenLayers and TileCache (mod_python), and the only way I've
gotten them to work together is by defining the same resolutions in both.
These resolutions are defined in the overview map as well, which I just want
to be a static, full extent/global map. My overview map is currently zoomed
too far in on the map center, and from this post:

http://www.nabble.com/OverviewMapControl-config-tips--to14598136.html#a14601624

it sounds like the issue is resolution. However when I change the resolution
values in TileCache or OpenLayers the map stops working. I've tried using
maxResolution as well, without luck.

OL:
var options = {controls:[], maxExtent:new OpenLayers.Bounds(-180, -90, 180,
90), resolutions:
[0.3515625,0.17578125,0.087890625,0.0439453125,0.02197265625,0.010986328125,0.0054931640625,0.00274658203125,0.001373291015625,

restrictedExtent:new OpenLayers.Bounds(-180, -90, 180, 90)}
var ovOptions = {mapOptions:{numZoomLevels:1, maxExtent:new
OpenLayers.Bounds(-180, -90, 180, 90), resolutions:
[0.3515625,0.17578125,0.087890625,0.0439453125,0.02197265625,0.010986328125,0.0054931640625,0.00274658203125,0.001373291015625,
0.0006866455078125,0.00034332275390625,0.000171661376953125,0.0000858306884765625,0.00004291534423828125],
maxResolution:1}}

var map = new OpenLayers.Map('map', options);
var ovm = new OpenLayers.Control.OverviewMap(ovOptions);
map.addControl(ovm);
