I find I have to set "IgnoreEDID" "True" in my xorg.conf card options to get it to work. I am not entirely sure why - but it works. I think it ignores what the monitor says its settings are and then uses settings you specified, but I could be wrong. I'm using an nVidia Ti4200 on a 17in Relisys TL766 (model number might be off for the latter, I'm at work at the moment). PS: Can we please try to trim the emails down a little? Quoting several paragraphs of settings makes for a long email ;) Cheers -- djn I do not represent anyone else in emails I send to this list. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
