Hal,
Thanks very much for so quick a reply. I didn't want to acknowledge it
until I'd seen whether I could report any progress at all. I think I can.
Inspired by your suggestions, I now have copies of Fedora's and
Knoppix's xorg.conf files on a drive accessible by both those distros
and by Windows as well. I've printed those copies out (using Windows,
which is all I can print from right now). I'll compare them and then try
to cobble together a replacement Fedora file taking in the relevant bits
about the new monitor from the Knoppix file. I'll then copy that to the
partition that has the current Fedora xorg.conf file and then try to
boot up in Fedora.
Thanks again,
Leslie
