Hi, I also have a Trident 3DImage975 card on my m/c. By default it was identified and set to 8 bit colors. But I needed at least 16 bit colors, at 800x600 resolution. The card is capable of delivering more, but this is what I used in Windows also. My monitor is from Microtek, having the following HorizSync - 30-56 kHz VertSync - 50-120 Hz Whenever I tried to start X, the monitor went into a power saving mode, without any errors. I manually deleted from XF86Config the Mode Lines which were within the frequencies of the monitor leaving only one entry for 800x600. I am now getting the desired resolution. The same should be applicable for other modes. BTW, X should be a link to the SVGA server. A trial and error method of removing the ModeLines should work. I could also get 32 bit depth at 1024x768. I just wrote this for all people having problems with configuring the card.
