Hi, I am trying to extend a 2m DVI cable that is a metre too short and
am surprised to discover that I may be out of luck so am seeing if
anyone has any ideas. 

It doesn't appear that you can get a simple extension in the same way
you can with VGA.  I can find a 5m cable which would be fine, except
that the plug is a little too long by about 2cm to fit into the slight
recess on the back of the monitor.  (Oh yeah - other end is a linux box).

Computer Future think I may be out of luck... I thought I would see if
anyone here knew of a source of such extension cables - basically male
on one end, female the other (if there is such a thing) or have any
other suggestions prior to yet more (probably fruttless) visits to PC
stores or resigning myself to staying on VGA?

Cheers,
Roger
