Both look good to me. So it seems like "just" the monitor can't display what it's supposed to. As I tried to help you on IRC without much luck, the only thing left for me to suggest is to only use Modes "current" in Subsection "Display", which should have the server use the current mode from console, which should obviously work. -- Earthling Michel Dänzer (MrCooper)/ Debian GNU/Linux (powerpc) developer XFree86 and DRI project member / CS student, Free Software enthusiast
