Sorry, not remembered correctly

The actual complaint is very simple.

The windows box gracefully coped with the presence of a KVM

The linux box required specialist input (editing of modelines) to get it 
 to go at higher resolutions. Other specialists might have found some 
 options which were hard coded into the xorg.conf file. At the end of the 
 day, a specialist was required to fix it.

Further, the system's GUI monitor config tool was totally useless.
The system's GUI monitor config tool could not cope with the presence of a 
KVM.
