(Does this imply a bad horiz sync value?) The box is an eMachines etower 333k, which means it has an ATI Rage IIc video card. SuperProbe (Version 2.20 (17 June 1999)) says: First video: Super-VGA Chipset: ATI 264GT-IIc (3D Rage IIc) (Port Probed) Memory: 4096 Kbytes RAMDAC: ATI Mach64 integrated 15/16/24/32-bit DAC w/clock (with 6-bit wide lookup tables (or in 6-bit mode)) (programmable for 6/8-bit wide lookup tables) Attached graphics coprocessor: Chipset: ATI Mach64 Memory: 4096 Kbytes The monitor, of course, has no manual, because it's a hand-me-down. Front says "Gateway2000" and "Vivitron"; on the back, "Model CPD-GF250T" and the fact that it was manufactured in 1997 in Tijuana :-) (In the past, when using other equally-undocumented monitors, I've been able to figure out the OEM, and get the specs from them, but no go on this one.) Suggestions? P.S. For completeness' sake, I'm including a recently-generated XF86Config, but it's so bad that I would not encourage anyone to try to debug -- just tell me what to tell XF86Setup or xf86config :-} David H-S # XF86Config auto-generated by XF86Setup # # Copyright (c) 1996 by The XFree86 Project, Inc. # # Permission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a # copy of this software and associated documentation files (the "Software"), # to deal in the Software without restriction, including without limitation # the rights to use, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, # and/or sell copies of the Software, and to permit persons to whom the # Software is furnished to do so, subject to the following conditions: # # The above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in # all copies or substantial portions of the Software. # # THE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED "AS IS", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR # IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, # FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.
