by Hi, I'm running RH 5.1 on my Toshiba Protoge650CT, and (not
suprisingly it seems) am having some trouble getting XFree86 to work...
The video chipset is C&T 65550 (don't even know if this really matters),
resolution 800x600, active matrix screen. I have the resolution and the
mouse working fine, but I think there is something horribly wrong with my
synch rates. When I start up X, I get all these flashing horizontal black
lines, and the screen kind of flickers. It's usable, but just barely.
Does anyone have any info on setting the synch rates for an LCD monitor?
I'm running the XF86_SVGA server, and have the hsynch set to 31.5-35.1kHz
in the menus in xf86config). I don't really know which parts of the
XF86Config file to edit to change the synch rates... and don't want to
damage the display (of course) any help would be greatly appriciated.
Thanks! Zane AE
