Hi,
I had to configure manually my XF86Config because Suse 8.2 (like any older
version) is very problematic with my graphic card and monitor.
I've got NVidia Geforce3 Ti 200 card and an 18.1" LCD monitor which I use
in 1280x1024@60Hz.
I've learned that I must use FrameBuffer Timing with incompatible
configurations. But in XFree86.0.log, I've got the warning which says
<>...
And I'm booting with vga=794 parameter... Here is the related parts of two
files:
--------------

Here is my problems:
1-) When I use the result of xmode -x 1280 -y 1024 -r 60
Modeline "1280x1024" 102.24 1280 1296 1552 1736 1024 1024 1033 1070
^^^^^^
I can't do it work with this value, I made it 112...
2-) Fonts on my KDE menus or buttons are a little bit weird, maybe too
sharp..
3-) I can't boot with vga=795, it says immediatly <<you entered an invalid
mode>>
Any help would be appreciated
