The card and the monitor were probed, correctly identified, and properly configured without question on the first try. The rub is that I had to *reinstall* the system in order for sax to *see* and configure the KDS Rad display... always the display complained of horz sync out of range... way too high. A little background... the machine has an nvidia geforce card and was originally attached to a Samsung 713V TFT monitor. We swapped in the permanent monitor KDS Radius Rad-5S 15" 1024x768 30-62 and could not get the system to recognize the monitor, nor could we get sax2 to even start. Always the monitor complained about the horz sync being too high. So, there appears to be something going on at install time that is quite ( better ) from (post install) reconfig. Folks play havoc trying to reconfigure X video. Something needs to be improved so that the system identifies a hardware change (plug and play) for a new video card (or monitor) so that sax2 does her thing without any manual fuss. Thanks folks.
