Regards, Andrei Hi Andrei :) I don't think so, it's a declarative statement. I guess nobody wish to have a vertically frequency of 60Hz ;), it's not very pleasant to look into a stroboscope. In addition I wish to be able to select the screen resolution I like, 1152x864 @ 90Hz. Then I have several needs and need several drivers. I'm used to switch the drivers automatically at startup, by adding rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf case $(uname -r) in *rt*) cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nv /etc/X11/xorg.conf ;; *) cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf.nvidia /etc/X11/xorg.conf ;; esac to /etc/rcS.d. At the moment I urgently need help regarding to xorg.conf or any other solution that enables me to select the driver, and to get 1152x864 @ 90Hz. The graphics is a NVIDIA GeForce 7200 GS aka 7300 SE. The CRT monitor is an Lifetec/Medion MD1998JB J91B. I never had issues with old Debian/Ubuntu and Suse installs. I ordered some new gear, a RME HDSPe AIO sound card + a 8 analog IO ADAT device and some other stuff. It was delivered yesterday, but it's still packaged, because I'm unable to set up a new Linux DAW. Old Linux DAWs are still available by backup archives ;). At the moment for my Debian install, the mouse wheel isn't working, as soon as I add a xorg.conf. Without an xorg.conf the mouse wheel seems to work all the times. I stopped trying to use old xorg.confs. I run Xorg -configure in recovery mode. The mouse is a wired Trekker Wheel Mouse 2.0A PS/2. This is what Xorg -configure generated Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7" EndSection While for Ubuntu at least the frequency and resolution can be set by an old xorg.conf, for Debian frequency and resolution are still not set :(. Any help is very much appreciated. Best, Ralf -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
