Hi,

i have a problem with an external monitor (Crt), which is sometimes
connected to my laptop. When switching with Fn+F5 to the external
monitor the screen flickers and the resolution changes from 1024x768 to
800x600 or 640x480(i�m not shure), shows only a part of the full screen.

It�s working fine, if my primary resolution (the resolution of my
laptop) is 800x600. So I think it has something to do with my
XF86Config. I don�t know, what could be wrong. I had the problem with
XFree 4.2.1 and I hoped it could be solved with XFree 4.3., but it�s
not. It works with the nvidia driver, but I want to use the nv driver,
because i want to use swsusp and thats not working with the nvidia
driver.
Any idea?

Cheers Martin

This is my XF86Config:
