It's been a while since I've played with X but here is what I can remember:
Check the "screen" section and make sure the "display" mode is 800x600. Also make sure the depth is something your card can handle (try 8 first). Also, there might be a XF86Config-4 file that you also may need to edit instead of the XF86Config. Finally, are you sure the settings for your graphics card are correct? Make sure it has the right card information in the "device" section. <quote who="Nick Wilson"> > Hi all, > > I can set my monitor nicely with xvidtune but cannot make the changes > permanent.
