Re: [SLUG] Fixed frequency monitor
I have a fixed frequency 20" HP monitor. I think it's an A2088A. Free to a good home. It does 1152x908. I got it working on a PC once. I have the cable. I think it needs sync-on-green. Useful URLs are http://historia.et.tudelft.nl/~marcj/fixed_freq/ and http://www.diku.dk/users/pink/monitor.html I'm in Wollongong.

I've sent a request to cornerstone, thanks for the link. I just tried getting it going using win2000, worse results than linux...

Re: [SLUG] Fixed frequency monitor
I don't knwo about your monitor in particular, but I managed to get a really old 19" Sun moniotr happening with X... fixed freq - not video card (using standard VGA card).. The trick is to pull it open and play with it until you get the hsync and vsync right.. the larger monitors will usually work if your card is driving at 1280x1024 and you fiddle enough (look at the specs of your monitor to be sure).. Mind you, it will *only* work when in graphics mode (i.e. X) .. whne you're booting you'll just see fuzz. :) //umar. > > > I've been given a cornerstone 21/76 monitor and a graphics card to go with > > it (an ImageAccel 2)... can I get it to work in X? best I could do is > > unsupported vga - a bit of a waste.

The Cornerstone web site has drivers for the IA2 for WindoZe 3.1, 95, NT 3.51/40. and OS/2 2.11 and 3.0, as well as BIOS updates. Gertting these things working under WindoZe is difficult at best. Getting them running under X is most likely impossible. As far as I can tell, not even Metro-X supports this card, so I'm guessing you're shit out of luck. DaZZa P.S.

I've been given a cornerstone 21/76 monitor and a graphics card to go with it (an ImageAccel 2)... can I get it to work in X? best I could do is unsupported vga - a bit of a waste.
