OK, when I said that everything was working, I seem to have spoken too soon. Every so often the screen flashes blue (no signal). The longer it runs, the more it flashes. This continues to the point I cannot see. Even pressing CTRL + ALT + F1 to go back to the shell doesn't stop the flashing. WTF?
I've had OpenSuse 10.2 installed on the computer and with this monitor before and I didn't have this issue. It's not a problem with the monitor. I put in a Mandriva live CD and it works fine (except for the part where it wont display at 1680x1050!) ARGH! That XP Pro disk is looking really good right now!
