I did that. It still does not work. I know the Monitor vert/hort parameters and entered it, but it still will not recognize it. Note that I had to use the Fedora Rescue CD in order to modify the xorg.conf by hand. I note that FC4 does not use the script: 'system-config-display' but instead uses a Python script. Will it still work? I am trying this now... and will let you know if it will work. -- ======================================================================= IF I HAD A MINE SHAFT, I don't think I would just abandon it.
