Thanks :) "Warning: Do not "just" change the values of these two monitor related variables without consulting the technical specifications of your monitor. Setting incorrect values lead to out-of-sync errors at best and smoked up screens at worst." <http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/xorg-config.xml> I saw something similar in your file. How dangerous is this? The danger is analogous to "overclocking" but applies to the monitor? -Thufir -- [email protected] mailing list
