I just did a clean install of 8.2. When the system boots and attempts to load the log in screen, my monitor displays a warning that the signal is out of sync. I booted "Failsafe", and tried running yast in text mode. It shows that my monitor was detected as a Samsung SyncMaster 4S, when in fact it's a Samsung SyncMaster 957MB. When I try to change the settings using yast, I get the same blank screen with the monitor displaying the "out of sync" message again. I get the same result when I try to run sax2 directly. Once sax2 launches, the screen goes blank with the out of sync message. Since I can get to a command line, and I (think I) can use vim, what is the X config file I need to edit manually?
