Subject:   XF86 configuration doesn't work correctly.

I called my monitor vendor and received my hsync and vsync limits, and
entered them when running xf86config, yet when I start the X server, I get
'signal out of range' errors.  Is XF86 written that poorly?
I can't seem to get a running X server no matter what configuration I use,
whether defining my own, or using one of the pre-defined monitor types.  I
have my card and mouse configured correctly.  The only X server I can get
running won't allow me to change modes, and is stuck in a 640X480 looking
window.  I specified that I wanted to be allowed to change modes, although
it won't let me, and it says I can run 800*600, 640*480 and 1024*768 at
all color depths.

Is there a simple solution to this problem?  I've tried many different
configurations.

thank you
