I have a SyncMaster3 from SAMSUNG and a PCI SVGA board i can't determine its vendor nor type nor nothing :) Well, in the xf86config i put the hsync and vsync from the monitor's manual (which have a precision of three decimal points - i really don't have them with me now) and just to ensure compatibility i used the VGA16 server. When I tried to run startx the screen was in graphical mode, but with several vertical lines black and white. When i move my mouse, part of the screen bacame dark white. I also tried to change the server into the mono VGA, and into the SVGA server with the same result. Anything else i need to try? Thanks in advance!
