What is 'all the correct ways'? In my experience, Sax2 or Yast2 didn't get the exact monitor's information. BTW< I'm using SUSE 10.0, though. Sax doesn't work properly with ATI driver.

Basil> Re the 68Hz versus 60Hz refresh rate. So, I wrote 'generally speaking'. That is, as you might know, there doesn't exist the refresh rate for LCD. But, LCD maker optimizes the LCD display's control circuit seeing LCD display as a CRT display with 60Hz refresh rate. As you point out, the spec is shown as follows; *1024x768@68 Maximum Resolution At this point, I wondering.... That is, for LCD display, we do must avoid the too high refresh rate. Unless, it give damages to LCD display. Regards, --- Masaru Nomiya mail-to: nomiyac360 @ mg.point.ne.jp "No Windows, no gains!" .....
