--Boundary-00=_RAKoCsBQiRytre5 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline Hi Everyone! Hmm, it seems to be so simple: take a DVI cable, connect it with the monitor and the G550 card, start FreeBSD (current), change some settings in the xorg.conf file and then start X. Well, I failed miserably :-(. The only resolutions working are 800x600 and 640x480 but the 1280x1024 I'd like to get does not work. The monitor says something like "frequency out of range" and/or "cable not connected". I tried it with W2K and there it works, so I don't think it's a problem relating to the cable. I can't find anything in the xorg.0.log file which seems to be a configuration error. Is there anything I forgot to do? I'm running FreeBSD current as of last week and the monitor is a BenQ 783. Any help is appreciated! I attach the current xorg.conf and a Xorg.0.log as compressed tar. Many thanks and please reply to me directly, because I'm not subscribed to this list! Christian. --Boundary-00=_RAKoCsBQiRytre5--
