Hello, I am quite frustrated.  I cannot get X to run on my computer, 
actually, it runs, but the video timings seem to be incorrect.  I used to 
have xfree86 3.x.x, and now i have 4.1.x .  The older version works, and i 
know why.  It's because the server didn't try to create its own modelines.

Here is how it goes:
I run Xconfigurator
it automatically detects my video card (ATI AIW RAGE 128 PRO)
and gets the correct scan frequencies from my monitor.
Then, I select the correct video modes (any video mode for that matter, none 
of them work), and test the configuration.  The screen goes blank, and the 
monitor turns of the CRT to save itself from frying.

I tried just about everything, from choosing a generic VGA card to a generic 
VGA monitor.  Nothing seems to work.  Right now I am using VNC to access the 
graphical interface on my computer from a good friends computer.  Any sort 
of help would be needed.  But I think I may just need to buy a new monitor.  
Thanks.
