Have you tried removing the HorizSync and VertRefresh normally they are not that important for LCD screens. I would think the problem is with your video adapter rather than with the monitor because I used to get the 320x240 screen when the adapter was not recognised. Since you have RH 7.2 the config program will have decided for you whether X 4.1 or X 3.3.6 should run. I did not folllow the beginning of the thread so I don't know whether you checked which version is running. You mailed us an extract of your XF86Config. This file is used by X3.3.6. If you are running X 4.1 then XF86Config-4 applies and you should look there and hack there. Theoretically X -version should tell you which version is running, the version is also mentionned at the beginning of the log. The 320x240 screen hints strongly to 3.3.6... Suggestion: find out the running version if it is 3.3.6 find out whether /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 exists if it is there then rename /etc/X11/X to X336 for instance create /etc/X11/x as a symlink to /usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 now startx will give you 4.1, follow the steps for 4.1
if it is 4.1 and gives troubles try with the vesa driver this is an (regrettably) unaccelerated *universal* driver it may get you started... In case of problems post the full XF86Config-4 (resp. XF86Config) and the log. You can get a more complete log than /var/log/XFree86.0.log by doing startx 2>mylog Lionel I would make sure you are running 4.1 Assuming you are really running you could try: the vesa driver (non accelerated --- Matt Sickles <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Yes, I have looked through and tried all of the various configuration > settings with each of the listed laptops.
