Yeah, everything I fed XF86Setup was straight from my monitor's manual. Both os'es I run exhibit the same behavior, which I don't get , because I have perfect image quality at 800x600, but not at anything higher. Surely there are people with s3 virge based cards that are running high res successfully, is it my monitor perhaps? Both items are only a year old. Wolfgang Weisselberg wrote:
Hi!
Trying to kill the keyboard, satan@nfinity.com produced:
As long as we're on the subject, anything over 800x600 and I get a horrid refresh rate. Both my card (s3) and my monitor (ADI 5AP 17") are capable of doing better at up to 1280x1024.
While setting up the X Window System, did you correctly specify the min and max horizontal and vertical frequencies your monitor will accept? If not, you stumbled over a safety feature in XFree86 --- it will not let you use frequencies you did not allow as OK, so your monitor won't be fried (worst case).
Oh, you can also play with xvidtune to move/resize the screen ...
