I have a older Philips Brilliance monitor that I am trying to use with
various
Linux distros. I am trying to figure out how I would be able to adjust the
viewing properties, as there are no external controls (dials, knobs, etc) -
under Windows it is all controlled via software...
Is anyone familiar with these monitors, and if so, is there any hope for it
under Linux?

This should be all the info you really need, the rest should be configured by
whichever tool your distro uses (Xconfigurator, XF86Setup, etc.)
What kind of problems are you having, the virtual display problem where only
part of your desktop is shown? If so, look here:

if not, post what specific problems you are having.
1. Centre display on Philips Brilliance 107 monitor?
Hi there,
I have an unusual problem with my lovely Philips Brilliance107 monitor.
I have recently upgraded my video card to a Permedia II 8Mb and am
Brilliance monitor uses software to centre and resize/geom the screen.
Of course this software is only available for Win98/NT and not for our
fantastic Linux OS.
Is there a program or utility that will allow me to resize the physical
display and move the desktop closer to the centre of the screen? I
believe this can be done with changing the dot timings in XF86Config..
but I dont know how?
The only other solution I can think of is to work out the exact display
parameters (ie Vsync, Hsync etc) and set this up under windows, correct
the display, then load Linux again. However .. why would I want to
load Microsoft crap again.. when I have Linux installed. There must be
a hacker solution!
Help would be appreciated..
