Screen Resolution

   Hi Folks,

I'm having a bit of a problem with setting X to use a higher resolution. Under Winblows, this monitor, a Viewsonic Graphics Series G810, can run 1280x1024 just fine. But I can't get it to do that under X. I can run system-config-display and set it to 1280x1024 but then when I restart X, the screen is all screwed up. I get horizontal lines all over it and you can barely read anything.

At first I thought maybe it was my refresh rates, but after verifying with Viewsonic, they match and are what they should be:

Section "Monitor"
       Identifier   "Monitor0"
       VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
       ModelName    "ViewSonic G810"
       HorizSync    30.0 - 97.0
       VertRefresh  50.0 - 180.0
       Option      "dpms"
EndSection

   As for the video card, it's a:

Section "Device"
       Identifier  "Videocard0"
       Driver      "trident"
       VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
       BoardName   "Trident Blade3D (generic)"
       Option      "NoAccel"
EndSection

What else should I be looking at to figure out this problem? I'd like to get the monitor running with a higher resolution, at least, higher than 1024x768.

   Thanks.
