I have recently acquired a notebook and this is the first time I've tried an LCD 
screen instead of a CRT display. I have some code that tries to find and set a DGA 
display mode as part of a video initialisation function, and I have noticed that all 
the modes returned by XDGAQueryModes() have a 0Hz verticalRefresh on the notebook. Can 
I rely on the verticalRefresh being set to zero with all LCD displays, or is this just 
some strange side effect? If this behaviour is not intended then I don't see any other 
way of detecting if we have an LCD display or not. I think we need to know this, as if 
we have an LCD display we would need to make sure we have a pretty low refreshrate 
(around 60Hz) whereas on a CRT we just run at whatever the monitor gives us.


Thanks,
James
