1. Yes. It *CAN* handle 1920x1200. It is a VERY expensive monitor :-)))) (Here in Europe it costs about 6000 $) 2. that's true, but I don't want to do this manually. 3. that I have to check... Regards, Harry (in a sunny, but cold Holland)

Yes. I located this file and added an entry for my Samsung SyncMaster 240T. It's working, SaX2 detects my monitor, but entered modelines are not copied into the XF86config. So it's not possible to create a predefined setting for the resolution 1920x1200
Harry,
Three questions. 1- I have a SyncMaster, but not 240T, so I don't know whether you're right or not. Are you *positively* sure your monitor can handle 1920x1200? (I know mine can't go that high!) I only ask because recently another SuSEr fried his SyncMaster with wrong frequencies... 2- If (big IF) the monitor can handle the 1920x1200, then what's preventing you from entering that value when you click on Properties. And if you entered the value, and SaX2 accepted it, the modeline was created. 3- You say the modelines have not been copied into the XF86Config. Are you
sure? Maybe (just *maybe*) you're looking in the wrong place. I know it happened to me... I was looking for XF86Config in the *body* of /etc, but SaX2 had put it in /etc/X11... Do a ' find *XF86Conf* ' and look for the date and time. A final point, which comes from my (*very* limited) experience: if SaX2 isn't giving you the result you expect, try SaX (without the '2', the old one). Don't ask me why, but I've had that experience of achieving with one what I couldn't with the other... (that goes also for YaST and YaST2...)
Best of luck.
