I tried editing XF86Config (to 50hz) but I just got a message that it
could not find a valid screen (Changed it back and it is back to
normal). What I can't understand is how come the windows driver works
fine? the output from the computer is 50hz and shows on the monitor OK.
(at 800x600) so I should be able to set linux to 50hz 800x600 and get a
picture but the driver seems to want to change to 25hz?
