Bruce, thanks for the link to SwitchresX - the display is showing
1680x1050 now, although it took four restarts to get both the nVidia
card and the display to co-operate.

Hi all,
Quicksilver 2002 G4 running Tiger 4.11 with standard Nvidia
GeForce4 MX 64MB - the adc runs 17" Apple screen and the VGA runs
a (not new) Fujitsu 22" display.
This is currently set to 1600x1024 but is very fuzzy.
If I select an option which causes a no-show a small window
appears "Please change the display mode to 1680x1050 with 60 Hz".
I'm supposing this is the native display mode - but this is not an
option available in System Preferences/Displays.
I'm guessing it is the display card which provides the resolution
options and wonder if it is possible to change this in some way to
provide the called for resolution?
You can try SwitchresX <http://www.madrau.com/indexSRX4.html>
You'll need to go into the older versions, you need to get 3.8.7
for 10.4.
This will let you use officially unsupported resolutions, it may or
may not work, depending on the card and monitor.
