Yep, I feel your pain.hi list,
I don't know if its fedora's or my monitor's problem, my monitor was unprobed so i entered the Hsync and Vsync from the manual, the installation(fresh install) went smooth. After the installation i was prompted to reboot, the graphical boot-up was nice, i was prompted to create a regular user and all those post install stuff. Then I logged in, saw the GNOME start up. I was begining to navigate the menus when the monitor's view shrunk, then kapooooffff!!!! Then I smelled some burned plastic/stuff coming from my monitor.
Kinda weird, i used the same Hsync and Vsync on this same machine with the RH9 install. is it FC1's fault? or bad hardware? any similar experience here
However, all the monitors I have dealt with in the last 2-3 years have just gone into "sleep" mode if the signal rates were out of supported range.
I think newer monitors protect themselves that way.
How old was this 17" monitor?
-Ben.
