What you gave me is very close to working. I think
1024x768@70Hz would work, if I knew the proper
modelines to uncommnet or to modify.
There are no "modelines" in the file. Modeline has a specific meaning
discussed in this thread by Duncan last week. Most users need know nothing
about them.
Your posts quote too much to make it worth hunting for your preferred
resolution in previous posts. Had I remembered you wanted 1024x768 that's
what would have been in that xorg.conf you fetched instead of 1280x1024.
You should probably change only four characters (add two and subtract two):
Replace
DisplaySize 270 203 # 096 DPI @ 1024x0768
...
# DisplaySize 338 270 # 096 DPI @ 1280x1024
with
# DisplaySize 270 203 # 096 DPI @ 1024x0768
...
DisplaySize 338 270 # 096 DPI @ 1280x1024
and
# Option "PreferredMode" "1024x768"
...
Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024"
with
Option "PreferredMode" "1024x768"
...
# Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024"
If you'd rather 96 DPI not be forced, just add the two "#" characters to the
DisplaySize lines lacking them instead of removing the two others. Many
people find display behavior suboptimal at anything less than 96 even if less
is accurate.
You may also want to change
VertRefresh 56-76
to
VertRefresh 56-71
if 75 refresh isn't acceptable to you or your CRT.
