Uh... yeah, tell me about it... I nearly pulled my hair out...
... in fact, near the end I finally went out there and deleted
*everything*
xorg.conf xorg.conf.save yadda yadda and tried to start sax2... nadda.
wouldn't even start ... horz sync out of range... too high...
I got the machine running again by *reinstalling* it.... not a big
deal,
took thirty minutes... probed, found, and configured the card and the
monitor (including *knowing verbatim* ) the specifics of both... and it
worked flawlessly without asking me one single question.
And my earlier point is simple... whatever sax is doing at install
should be
able to be reproduced (post install) so that adding or changing either a card
or monitor is a five minute job instead of all afternoon! sigh.
