Err, you are doing this with X started, yes? > rattler:/etc/X11# grep -E '^\((EE|WW)\)' /var/log/Xorg.0.log > (WW) The directory "/usr/share/fonts/X11/cyrillic" does not exist. > (WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-0 > (WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to get display device CRT-0's EDID; cannot compute > DPI > (WW) NVIDIA(0): from CRT-0's EDID. > (WW) Configured Mouse: No Device specified, looking for one... > > Maybe my monitor is too old. NEC MultiSync P1150. Could be. It would probably be enough to put the H-Sync and V-Sync ranges for your monitor in xorg.conf. Haven't done this in a while so I can't give you exact details, but google should have plenty of examples. Note: you will probably find a lot of examples with complicated modelines. Ignore those for now, put only the V-Sync and H-Sync and see if you get any further. Regards, Andrei -- If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough. (Albert Einstein)
