This is generally applicable only to very old monitors. Sync rates are pretty much irrelevant when it comes to LCDs anyway. Just choose LCD and it should work. > On another topic, is xf86config used by many distros (ie Fedora, > Mandrake, etc...) on install, or do they use a different autodetection > system? I am running gentoo, so I guess it really doesn't apply anyway. SuSE has its own, sax. Debian has "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xfree86" Those are the only ones I've bothered with recently. Others can help with the others. -- Any technology distinguishable from magic is insufficiently advanced.
