Capping the refresh rates didn't do anything. So I tried to narrow the ranges. Here is what I have now: HorizSync 50-80 VertRefresh 55-120 It flickers even worse now at this setting. If I try to go 51-80, the display is garbage. On Sat, 2003-12-06 at 20:52, Ryan Detert wrote: >

I'd try capping the refresh in your monitor section. - I never worry about modelines. Modern X is pretty good with it. - I just set the horizontal sync/vert refresh to the settings in the manual. Try looking them up. When I get home (I'm snowed in at my girlfriend's) I can send you XF86Config from

I use an ATI AIW MACH64 card which has a TV tuner. Unfortunatly, the gatos capture driver (km) for this card is not 100% V4L1 compatible. As such, I cannot use mplayer to display TV from this card. I can use xawtv for this card, which works great. Is there anyway xawtv can be used at the tv dis
