Change monitor in Linux/*BSD - NO problem. Just edit XF86Config from the console and start X. Works fine. Takes 10 minutes - including time taken searching for the book with the monitor specs. :-) WinBlows - *&%*^& !! :-( Probably not so bad if you are upgrading your monitor so that the existing settings are within those of the new monitor (don't know). But changing from a 17" 85Hz to 14" 60Hz - YUK! VGA mode doesn't allow any refresh rate change, and normal mode produces an unreadable screen, so I can't make any corrections to the display settings there either. :-( If anyone knows a nifty solution (registry?) I'd be grateful. BTW - who was the twit who said they preferred XP?? MUST be mad! -- Regards, Brian To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
