Hi,
Here's some more detail:
Video Card: (output from SuperProbe)
Super-VGA
Chipset - Silicon Integrated Systems 5597/5598 (PCI Probed)
Memory - 512 Kbytes
RAMDAC - SiS built-in DAC w/clock (with 6-bit wide lookup tables (or in 6-bit
mode))
Monitor: (off the back...haven't tracked down the manual yet)
Packard Bell
Model #: 20245
100-240v
50-60 Hz
1.5A
Does it seem like I should be able to configure it? I haven't been able
to....even edited the file generated by xconfigurator after creating it to
change to specifically that Hz range...still didn't work...do I need to install
another X server other than what was the default from the install?
Another oddity....the GUI install comes up really nice and looks really good...I
was definitely surprised after that happened and then I get such an ugly X
session.
Thanks for any help in advance.
Tim.

Subject: Re: [newbie] Linux Mandrake 7.0 with Packard Bell Monitor
i have a Packard Bell 1020 monitor. I used Generic
MultiSync monitor
when setting up my monitor for X. I may have done some
tweaking, but
as I recall all the info I needed was in my booklet for the
monitor.
Write to me directly if you need further help.
