Are you using XFree86, version 3.3.3.1 and the XF86_Mach64
X - server ?

Howard,

Yes I am using XFree86 3.3.3.1 and XF86_Mach64, which in Redhat 6.0 supports
the ATI Mach64 VT (264VT) chip.  I also had X working previously with sony
CPD15sf1 and an old S3 chipset using the following sync rate:

horizontal 31.5-64.3
vertical 5-120

I am a bit confused why it is not working now.  The problem is that there is
screen "snow" and a little bit of "double vision".

Thanks for the reply and the web reference,
John
