I'm no guru, but this is damn peculiar. I noticed that someone
mentioned that you grab the latest X. Do you know what version
you're using? Is the G100 listed in the card database? I have a
G200 myself, and I had to upgrade to 3.3.3.1-10 cuz the X on the
slink CDs didn't support my card.
Also, when specifying the horizontal and vertical frequencies,
are you pressing <Enter> after entering each range in the
appropriate box? I noticed that when you don't, the values you
type in aren't reflected in the red bars indicating the ranges. I
don't know if this is significant, but it doesn't seem to hurt.
To switch between resolutions you press the combo Ctrl-Alt-(+/-)
to cycle forward and backward thru them.
