I have a Samsung 19" -191N. It works very well with either
the generic LCD driver, or lately they (Xorg) added many Samsung
vendor specific drivers. I'm also using it with a GeForce card,
and the opensource 'nv' driver. I've had it quite a while, it's
great! I'd say the only important item would be to run the
monitor at it's 'native' (vendor suggested) resolution. For mine
that's 1280x1024 @ 75Hz
