And it's not like this monitor is new. It had been on the market in 1999. I've used it, under Linux and Windows, on various systems since RH 6.0. I've owned this specific monitor for 3+ years now. btw - Framebuffer works fine at 1600x1024. > But I remember that until about 9 months ago i needed a manually set > Modeline > which took quite some experimentation to figure out. > Sorry, it doesn't work with or without modelines. And this xorg.conf was derived from an XF86config-4 file. It's been moved, once proven, from system to system. And the modelines came directly from the design engineer of the monitor. Neither Nvidia nor ATI get off without complaint. But disallowing a mode that represents a supply of 40,000 monitors - total of all this model produced and out in the world, is not acceptable.
