Bryan, Have you tried manually putting 1280x853 in the /etc/X11/xorg.conf (FC2) file? X may be smart enough to figure out the timing. Also, verify that the horizontal and vertical sync rates are appropriate for the display. Something like: SubSection "Display" Viewport 0 0 Depth 24 Modes "1280x853" EndSubSection Bob... P.S. Sorry if this appears twice on the list.
