My monitor is a 19" diag. (real size about 17") capable of 1280 x 1024 at 60hz, but sax wont believe it.

I guess it is time to see /etc/X11/xorg.conf, can you post it? It would be also good to know openSUSE version.
BTW, I have PCI version of the same card.
Suse 10.1 for AMD 64 xorg.config

This is what I mentioned under physical size. H=313/25.4=12.3" V=235/25.4=9.25" Diagonal size is 15.4". Your monitor is recognized as 15". You have to change that manually to whatever is visible size of your 19" monitor.

Somewhat spartan Section "Modes". You can comment out that line too, like this: # Modeline "800x600" 38.34 800 832 928 1024 600 604 608 624 -HSync -VSync

My card is AGP version, which I have discovered may be part of the trouble. I have not yet been able to find any agp drivers in the system. Searches sofar have turned up only old info about agpgart and nvagp and unsolved problems with both.
The agpgart worked fine in 10.1 with AGP graphic card in old computer. As I have nvidia 3D driver installed there too, I can assume that nvagp works fine if it is used. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
