Your graphics card and monitor must be able to support those modes. Also, the video card probably uses different rates (vertical refresh and horizontal sync) for each mode. You really should try to upgrade the driver and use XFree86 to configure your X for you. But again, if you want to risk

I'm not the expert (as Mark will atest to), but I think you should put the 1680x1050 first in your Display SubSection. I think you can put them on the same line. Then you should be able to Crtl-Atl-NumKey+ to switch between the modes. amerson wrote: Hey Dan and Mark, thanks for the adivice.
