Hi folks.

My old viewsonic g790 finally started to die, so I went
out and got a Samsung 204B.

Perhaps it is because I'm running a puny old ATI 3D Rage Pro,
or because I'm on SuSE 9.3, .... but when I plug in the new
monitor (yes, I dropped down to console before doing so,
so that I could safely run sax2), I get no output on the
monitor, merely a floating box saying that I'm not running
at optimum resolution (1600xNNN something). Enter, Esc,
Space buttons don't seem to affect anything. Neither does
turning off/on the monitor itself.

Google didn't turn up anything helpful looking.

FWIW, I tried running sax2 from another machine over ssh.
Sax2 (mis)identified the monitor as a Samsung Syncmaster 45.
I did not see the correct model in the list (but that's
probably because 9.3 predates the model). I changed the
Horz and Vert according to some specs I found online, but
that made no particular difference (small surprise).

Upgrading to 10.x is not really an option right now.

Help?

TIA.



Michael
