I have just bought a Mitsubishi DV172 monitor. It does 1280x1024 and is a "17 inch" monitor.
It is extremely picky about the settings that it will accept and totally screws up the display if you use frequencies it does not like. Below are frame-buffer settings that work well with it. Also if you auto-detect the frequency when at a console it will look bad, you have to have suitable things on screen when you instruct the monitor to detect the frequency if you want best results. I found that displaying the Melbourne TV guide in Mozilla while detecting the frequency gave a good result (but probably anything that has lots of vertical lines and fills the screen with color will do). # "1280x1024-74" mode "1280x1024" # D: 135.080 MHz, H: 79.366 kHz, V: 74.452 Hz geometry 1280 1024 1280 1024 16 timings 7403 200 12 16 4 210 22 accel true rgba 5/11,6/5,5/0,0/0 endmode -- http://www.coker.com.au/selinux/ My NSA Security Enhanced Linux packages http://www.coker.com.au/bonnie++/ Bonnie++ hard drive benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/postal/ Postal SMTP/POP benchmark http://www.coker.com.au/~russell/ My home page -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
