I have the same problem with the exact same card, cofig. ,etc. I do not think there is much you can do. I believe it has to do with the properties of the XFree86_SVGA X server. I have noticed that after running Xconfigurator and choosing only one resolution and color depth that it is less of a problem. Cary

Can anyone explain why I get higher output and so higher monitor brightness from a video card when using XFree86, compared with the same PC/card/monitor when using NT or DOS, or Linux in native non-X mode. (1.0 V p-p compared with 0.65 V p-p). And what I can do about it (to avoid twiddling monitor buttons on switching o/s on a dual boot machine) ? The video card is nVidia Corporation|Riva TNT2 Model 64, the XFree86 driver is SVGA, with XFree86 3.3.6 on RedHat 6.2, but also I get the same effect with 4.0.3 on RedHat 7.1. Thanks for any suggestions.
