Sony should have specification information on their website, note down
specifically the vert and horizontal frequencies and the graphic adaptor
make and model and you should be OK to go. It is unlikely that you will
get the settings correct first time without this exact information.

XFree86 Install Monitor and Card for Sony Laptop?

2004-04-06 Thread Craig Booth
During the initial SYSINSTALL setup of Xfree86 on my Sony VAIO PCG-FRV27
laptop under FreeBSD 4.9, the setup goes through the configuration menus,
then says it failed and do I want to try again.  I exited SYSINSTALL and ran
the config option on XFree86, finding out that the generated log shows that
its erroring out on the Monitor/Video Card initialization.  I can't find a
monitor in the database that matches my ATI Radion IGP345M PCI monitor, and
none of the display settings specifically match my 800/600 60 hz + 1028/768
60 hz setting.  One display setting had 800/600 76 hz + 1028/768 60 hz
setting, and that was the closest one so I tried it.  I also tried VGA as
the monitor, but it stilled failed.

 

What monitor, card and display settings should use?
