Well, whoever put these defaults in with the driver knew what he was doing: I get such a horrible flicker all over the screen when I move or scroll something I couldn't believe it. I went so far as to boot up my old Windows because I started becoming suspicious about my hardware: same settings, everything's fine.
The default dacspeeds are 163 for 16bpp and 136 for 24bpp! _______________________________________________ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
