I have gotten this working, thanks to Mark Vojkovich and Daniel Stone.
I added the following lines to my Monitor section:
Option "FlatPanel" "1"
Option "CrtcNumber" "1"
OpenBSD 3.1 comes with X 4.2.0,
I had to upgrade to 4.2.99.4, for the 'nv' driver.
Here is the full (uncommented) config:
Section "Module"
Load "dbe" # Double buffer extension
SubSection "extmod"
Option "omit xfree86-dga" # don't initialise the DGA extension
EndSubSection
Load "type1"
Load "speedo"
EndSection

I am running OpenBSD 3.1, which comes with
XFree86 4.2.0
My system is a Dell Dimension 8200,
with a GeForce4 Ti 4200 card
and a Dell 1800FP monitor.
I upgraded the nv_drv.o using the source for 4_2_99_4
so that the driver problems are gone.
(This was based on some posts on the OpenBSD
mailing lists.)
When starting X, I get a blank screen, then
"DVI Power Saving Mode", then back to a blank screen again.
When I kill the X server, the monitor won't reset
I have to power it off and back on again
to get back to text/ASCII mode.
I have gotten this system working with RedHat 7.3
and it works fine with an old 19" monitor (VGA, not flat panel/DVI)
My config and log are attached.
I would appreciate any help.
Thanks
David Shifflett
