I did it for my card and monitor, but you need to be very carefuland it is not easy. You can do any weired things (like 100x675 modeline ;), but you need to know the explicit datas from your monitor and your card. Here is the doc: /usr/doc/svgatextmode/monitor-timings.howto.gz (for text mode, but useful) /usr/lib/X11/doc/VideoModes.doc (this is the one to study). You will need perhaps three hours to read, understand and follow the text. Bye, Marcus -- "Rhubarb is no Egyptian god."
