I've attempted to change the vsync/hsync settings to no avail. Here are the monitor/video settings: Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName "Dell D1028L" DisplaySize 300 230 HorizSync 31.0 - 70.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 120.0 Option "dpms" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Videocard0" Driver "vesa" VendorName "Videocard vendor" BoardName "VESA driver (generic)" EndSection I'll attempt to also attach the entire config. -- Matt
