Also,

	Don't forget the old tools if you need to create modelines (gtf) or tweak X 
settings (xvidtune). xvidtune can also give you additional information about 
your system, timings, etc...

	Also as Theirry said look at the tools available for your chipset to set an 
initial config. For ATI 'aticonfig --initial' (google for nvidia and intel tips 
-- I can't remember right off hand)
