Cool! I did not know of this.
So here's the output for my system. This looks like both video card
AND monitor capabilities.

Yup, 4MB of video RAM.

These look like resolution/color depths. Are they governed by the video
card or monitor though? I am thinking video card.
15.82 inches monitor (truly 14.65')
My monitor is actually a 17" monitor

Cool, it turns the info from the monitor into XFree ModeLine settings.
But I am missing where it says that my monitor can only go up to 64kHz.
> What can it do? :)
If it really is being told that the monitor only goes to 64kHz, I agree,
it can do nothing, but I don't see that info anywhere.

Ooops, I meant a script that takes charge of inventorying the local system
and actually go out to the 'net and retrieves the RPMS from an archive
site and installs them. The easy part of course is the installing part,
the more difficult is the comparing inventories and figuring out which
ones to get. I have something that does inventorying on my Mandrake 6.1
system and informs which RMS need to be installed. I run it nightly
against the "updates" directory for a given release. I was just hoping
somebody had done this for Oxygen already.
