As root: $ emerge -av app-admin/eselect-opengl --noreplace $ eselect opengl list and then try switching to ati opengl libs if it gives you the choice? $ eselect opengl set ati/radeon/etc This is where I usually screw up with nVidia - but - who knows! If you want to have your monitor's modelines scanned, as well as the Horiz/Vert modes scanned, you can also: $ emerge -av ddcxinfo-knoppix I've found this tool invaluable when trying to scan the proper modes for my monitor. 99% of the time, this tool does the trick for me. You simply run it as such: $ ddcxinfo-knoppix # This will show you how it works. Then you might try something like: $ ddcxinfo-knoppix -firstmode 1024x768 -modelines -monitor -modes \ >> /etc/X11/xorg.conf Then edit your xorg.conf as you see fit - taking care to remember that the above tool will add it's own "Monitor" section, so you may want to comment out the original. These are some tricks that work for me, but as always - YMMV! Good luck with Xorg, that many tentacled beast that it is. -Jeff > Regards, > > Colleen > -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
