              This  optional  entry sets the upper left corner of
              the initial display.  This is  only  relevant  when
              the virtual screen resolution is different from the
              resolution of the  initial  video  mode.   If  this
              entry  is  not given, then the initial display will
              be centered in the virtual display area.

 They were already set.


I still have problems and they're really evident when I use applications
like nedit (grey background).  

Have you a Matrox G400?  

What do you think about the Beta Drivers for Linux from Matrox, I mean do
they works ( I cannot loose my data)?

Thanks
