        I recommend you try system-config-display with the --reconfig option as
this will ignore current settings and (I believe) probe your card for
all new values.

        Let me know if this works as I hope to get a new video card today.

Thanks a lot, Scott. Your idea works fine, and I have now no problem
regarding graphics card. Even the reported problem with Thunderbird
has disappeared.
