My 17" monitor keeps coming up with Out of Range warning.
Suse detected the Komondo monitor during installation.
Whereis XFree86.conf located I need to change the Hoz and Vert
settings.
/etc/X11/XF86Config
Since SuSE changed to Xorg the file is called
/etc/X11/xorg.conf (/etc/X11/XF86Config now is a symlink to xorg.conf)
I guess it is a better idea to use a tool like "sax2" to do that task ...
Therefore I recommend to change to runlevel 3 (by command "init 3" as
user root) and then calling "sax2" (as well as user root).
On the first page displayed by "sax2" you will find an entry for the
resolution. Probably it is set to 1280x1024. For 17" monitors a
resolution of 1152x864 or 1024x768 might be the better choice. If your
monitor supplier is not within the list of possible selections I
suggest to use the "-->> VESA" section.
Probably you should start with 1024x768 and then trying 1152x768.
Never give up !
Best regards,
Reinhard.

Thanks very much for your help.
I'am typically a Fedora user and I want to give Suse a checkout , I
think Novell is going to put a Lot of effort into making Suse the
Desktop for Linux, as a hardcore Linux user I prefer Fedora4 because it
gives me more of the bash commands to use than does Suse, Yes
I know I could install those commands in Suse. But Fedora and Suse gives
me the best of both words , commandline and desktop.
That is if I can get X to work on this boxwith Suse like Fedora does. I
had no problems in Suse9.3.
I do agree with you on the settings of 1024x768.
Suse Install setup is very easy for anyone to use.
thanks again
Jim
