I should have mentioned that my problem arises because I'm also running
OS/2 on the same box, so making adjustments to the monitor will mess up my
OS/2 system. Since XF86Setup allows adjusting it with software, I thought
this would enable me to leave the monitor itself alone.
----------------------------------------
Height, width and position shouldn't have to be changed from the
software... there should be buttons or something on the monitor that
control those things. Try the manual that came with the monitor for info
on fixing it. HTH

Subject: Saving XF86Setup Video Changes
I've recently installed Redhat 6.1 and am how trying to get it configured.
Although the installation program recognized my monitor (NEC P750) and
listed my video card (Matrox Millennium), the display isn't synched to my
monitor correctly. All available resolutions result in a display that
needs to be adjusted in height, width, position. (I'm using Gnome.)
I ran XF86Setup to adjust the video, but I can't figure out how to get
XF86Setup to save the new settings. There is a button labeled something
like "Save Configuration and Exit" but clicking it has no effect. (It
seems to be disabled.) I finally exited using a button called "quit" (I
think) but then the new settings are gone when I reboot.
Could someone tell me how to get XF86Setup (or it may actually be wvidtune
that is running from XF86Setup) to save video setting changes? Is there a
document somewhere that describes this procedure?
