Thanks. I tried this: XRANDR_DISABLE=True X_MODE_0=1024x768 X_HORIZSYNC=30-63 X_VERTREFRESH=60-75 because I know the monitor supports a refresh rate of 60 and 75 Hz at that resolution. I wasn't sure what hsync number to use, but 30-63 is a narrower range than Gadi had suggested, and it's the

David, You want a broader range for hsync, not narrower. That way, it can find a hsync frequency that it can use to achieve the vertical refresh you want. Try: 30-100 And, if that doesn't work, narrow the vertical refresh. -Gadi On Tue, 2009-09-08 at 10:02 -0600, David Burgess wrote:

It is not uncommon, especially for monitors that do not reply to DDC probe requests from the driver, to end up causing the driver to pick a mode that is not well suited. In this case, the fix is usually to tell Xorg what horizontal and vertical sync frequencies are appropriate for that monitor.
