Grab your monitor manual and find ranges for HSync and VSync. Be root and edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4. Find 2 fields HorizSync and VertRefresh. Put the ranges in there.. Don't put values. Put ranges.. If you have installed XF86-3.3.6, edit /etc/X11/XF86config instead... May be a good time to tell mandrake as well that when you select generic monitor in GUI X config, may be you should allow to key in hsync/vsync ranges. Would be a nice touch..
