Hi all, I purchased a Sony CPD-200ES monitor a couple weeks ago and have been using it with Debian without any sort of problem. When I bought I re-ran XF86Setup and configured for my new monitor.
Today when I came home from school, I noticed that my monitor was brighter than normal. I checked the settings and they were still set to the default levels. The first thought that ran through my head was that I was frying my monitor. Is this indicative that my video card is driving my monitor too hard? The specs for my monitor are (from the manual): Deflection frequency, horizontal: 30 to 70 kHz, vertical: 50 to 120 Hz The specs also indicate that there are factory preset modes for 1024x768 @ 60 kHz (horizontal.) and 75 Hz (vertical) and1024x768 @ 68.7 kHz (horizontal) and 85 Hz (vertical). My video card is a Matrox Millennium II with 8 megs of RAM. I don't have the specs for the card handy, but it is listed as a supported card. When I set up X11, I made sure to enter refresh rate frequencies that were within the limits of what the specs above show. I think I entered 32 to 68 kHz for horizontal and 55 to 110 Hz for vertical. Is there something else I should be doing? TIA
