I've had similar results with my G550. Xfree86 -configure works fine, but nothing else does. Also, even when I use the monitor info from xfree86 -configure or manually specify the specs for my monitor, a MAG 800V, the driver seems to set the mode wrong. I can't get 1280x1024x85Hz. It used to work fine when I was using Xfree CVS from last december I think. When I upgraded to redhat 7.3 (Xfree 4.2.0) in August, I couldn't get the monitor to sync at 85 hz, so I had to reduce the refresh rate to 75 hz. Now it works ok, but I'd prefer 85Hz. Also, at some of the lower modes like 640x480, the image is wavy. it sort of shakes. I haven't really had time to mess with it much, since it works tolerably at the moment.
