Ron, I have a 17" 'emachines' monitor. It was making some pretty heavy noise too when I first fired up x after running XF86Setup. I don't know why but in windoz it was quiet but x was giving it grief.. I finally tweaked the settings and cured the noise (Think I increased the res).. I'm sure it's probably unrelated, but I recall seeing upgrades to x the last two times I ran the 'apt-get update/upgrade' so perhaps you need to tweak things on ur end... Just a thought.
