I am having trouble getting the x server to work.  i have a virge dgx4 =
(s386c375/385) video card, and an old monitor that I have no =
documentation or information for.  I am pretty sure I should use the =
xf86_svga server, and that's what i've been trying to use.  i am unsure =
about the vertical refresh and horizontal sync rates that i should use.  =
i've been trying to guess some, but i get either an unvewiable screen or =
some weird lines going down it.  are there some generic options i can =
use to get this thing running, i.e. (640 x 480, 35 horizontal, 70 =
vertical, etc.).   thanks.
