Do you mean it has no some handles, knobs, etc. for adjusting? Just s/w?
xvidtune might help. but that's different kind of tuning - this is done
inside still picture that is tunable by external (monitor handles usually)
means. In fact, I've never seen a monitor without hardware tuning
capability...

If this is indeed as you explained, the only thing you can do is: don't
buy Philips. There are many others. Write to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and say
this to them.
Maybe, we should have some "blacklist" on our pages, for HW that just
isn't usable with Linux? Is there such a resource now? I know there's many
"compatible" lists, but if you don't find your HW there it just doesn't
mean anything - it could be still supported. A page that says "don't buy
this" could be very helpful - as help for buyer not to be lured by "that's
cool!" slogans into buying HW that he can't use, and maybe as a mean of
passing the message to HW vendors too, if it grows enough. Just like RBL
works for STMP world ;)
