Xorg settings from the automatic, did not properly manage the combination of 
sweep frequency and resolution.

I set the resolution, which my monitor could achieve at 1600x1200 but say that 
I could put the sweep freq at 85.  On relogging to Fedora10, the monitor went 
into protective mode, advising me that it would not display because the 
frequency was too high.

I have been looking (using Gnome) at where the monitor/sweep frequency settings 
are stored in the users /home directory.  (It is a hidden file), but thus far, 
I have not been successful. I can log in with a virtual terminal, since the 
terminal resolution works at a lower frequency / resolution combination.   
is it  ".gnome", or ".gvsv" or other similar hidden directory / file ?

   That won't work because the server is already running.  I don't want
to manually configure the thing.  Xorg comes up by itself by guessing what to
run (since there's no xorg.conf.)  And it does it so dang well, I just want
to know if there's a way to have it dump whatever guesses it comes up with,
and what the ultimate configuration it ends up using is.
