Hello I've got a ATI Rage 128 card in a PCI slot and it's been working like a champ in X now for quite a while. My only problem is the recognized monitor resolutions. Back in 9.X I was able to configure my card to drive my monitor at 1152 x 1024 or 1152 x 8XX and this was at 75hz. Now in X I can't select either of these. I have to choose either 1024 x 768 at 75hz or 1280 x 1024 at 60hz. The first feels cramped and the second causes a bit of a flicker since my other monitor is humming along at 75 hz. I've got "show Recommended" turned OFF in the Display Panel of the System Prefs and that 1152 still isn't listed. It is available, however when I boot the machine with the monitor turned off. And then subsequently turn on the monitor. It is then recognized as something other than a VGA monitor since the card wasn't able to probe the monitor. Upon reboot, if the monitor is left on, the card will set the resoultion to 1024 x 768 again. Short of locating and cutting off the monitor's sense pins, is there anyway of getting back my 1152 resolution? I've tried locating the .conf file or a com.apple.whatever.displays and editing the file using emacs but can't seem to find the right file to produce the desired results. Any insite is appreciated.
