Holdonaminute. Time for me to go on a rant: I _love_ LCD panels. When they're in digital mode. IMHO, an LCD panel being driven with an anlog signal is worse than a CRT -- frequently, I've even heard people say things like, "I've seen LCD panels, and their output isn't all that good." It's clear that they haven't seen a digital LCD panel, then. While everything that Mike said is true, I'd only seriously consider getting it if it also has a DVI port. You don't need to set it up now, but, if and when you do, it'll be a night-and-day difference. Otherwise, if it doesn't, might I recommend checking out how it looks vs. your current CRT, and see which you really prefer. Obviusly, an LCD panel has a higher geek factor, which is always attractive, but I wouldn't do it based on that alone when the actual stuff being displayed looks worse. $.02, -Ken > > 2. what parameters I'll need for the xconfig routine so I > > don't blow it up ;) > > The specs that I can find for that monitor indicate that it maxes > out at 1280x1024, with a max vsync of 85 Hz and a max hsync of 92 kHz. > That should be all the information xf86config needs to set up the monitor. > > - -- > [EMAIL PROTECTED] OpenPGP KeyID 0x57C3430B > Holder of Past Knowledge CS, O- > Put your wasted CPU cycles to use: http://www.distributed.net/ > "Absynthe makes the mind grow wonder" > > -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- > Version: GnuPG v1.0.7 (GNU/Linux) > Comment: The keyservers are broken.
