Hi, If I remember correctly, the issue is that some (most) monitors are pretty stupid. The boards generate the signals which drive the monitor, but the monitor does not have any way to tell the board that it is a XXXXX model monitor, and here are the rates it can be driven at. These values either come from the monitor database, or are entered by you during Xconfig time.
The card alone can not know this information. Lower vsync and hsync rates do not hurt a monitor. All they do is give you a lower resolution image. It is when you drive the sync rates above what the monitor is designed for (or try to) that trouble occurs. Modern day monitors detect this and shut off. Old ones smoke. Ergo resolutions depend on the card (what it is capable of) and the monitor (what it is capable of) and what you type in to tell each what it should be expecting. md ***************************************************************** To unsubscribe from this list, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the text 'unsubscribe gnhlug' in the message body. *****************************************************************
