While I don't know anything much about X4 modelines, and for myself using the monitor's onscreen display was enough to fix it up, for your problem of starting in the wrong resolution there is an easy fix. Under section `screen', go to the line that represents the colour depth that you're using (which it probably the number next to `DefaultDepth' in that same section. Just put the prefered resolution at the start of the line, and Bob's your uncle. cheers, damon -- Damon Muller | Did a large procession wave their torches Criminologist/Linux Geek | As my head fell in the basket, http://killfilter.com | And was everybody dancing on the casket...
