I've only found one place on the net that mentions this issue, they seem to believe that it is the latest release of xorg. I'm using Feisty on a fairly old machine. I've removed all the modeline statement in the xorg.conf file to let the VESA preset timing modes in my ViewSonic GS790 monitor control the modes. My video card is a MGA G400 Max (32M) duel monitor card, but I'm only using a single monitor. This always worked fine previous installs that were not Ubuntu based. The pertinent lines in my xorg.cone are below. --------------------------------------------------------- Section "Monitor" identifier "GS790" vendorname "ViewSonic" modelname "ViewSonic GS790" HorizSync 30-97 VertRefresh 50-180 #gamma 1.05 1.0 1.03 EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Device "Matrox Graphics, Inc.
