I'm trying to get a 486dx set up with X-windows. The monitor I'm using is a NEC Multisynch JC1401-P3A EGA that was manufactured when Ronald Reagan was peaking in popularity (in the U.S. at least, before Oliver North eclipsed him; no I'm not kidding :). I have installed Debian 1.3.1 onto a 500 meg hard drive and am now trying to get X Windows configured using the text based install utility, because the graphical setup uses VGA by default and that is (apparently) too much for this dinosaur to handle.
Anyway, I am now at the menu where you choose the horizontal synch range for the monitor. All the choices available to me, save one are for VGA monitors. The last choice allows me to put in a range of my own. What should I put in? Then, when it asks me about the vertical range, what should I put in for that? BTW the back of the monitor says it's rated for 120 volts at 60hz, and it appears to have jumpers for color settings. If any other details would be helpful, please let me know. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Talk to your friends online with Yahoo! Messenger. http://im.yahoo.com
