Anyone worked with specific modelines in XFree86? I have this problem After Deadbat 9.0 install X does not start - well X does start but the monitor complains that the frequency is incorrect. The install correctly detected both the S3 Savage onboard graphics and the Philips s107 Monitor. The settings for both in the X config file are correct [as far as i can tell] By removing the Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" line I can select resolutions that will display [Ctrl-Alt-+] but it loads _many_ different resolutions/modelines.
I tried copying the Modelines from the XFree86.0.log file and configuring X to use them, but it all came unstuck.. Is there anyone that knows how to specify the modelines to use [and to stop X using the default ones] BTW a Modes "640x480" line works, but adding other resolutions seems to cause frequency problems.. Also BTW Knoppix 3.2 has the same problem. Any thoughts Cheers John ********************************************************************** ** This email and attachments have been scanned for content and viruses and is believed to be clean ** This email or attachments may contain confidential or legally privileged information intended for the sole use of the addressee(s).
