Very Computer

I can't find solutions for these problems in the FAQ:

1) I am using a 14" Relisys monitor as X server on my Linux box.
Overall it works out well, but should I have to shutdown and
reboot, the display would come back on briefly to do the
memory check, but then die.  Then it'd usually take several
sessions of powering off/on before the reassuring "LILO" shows.
Is this indicative of my monitor getting fried with wrong clock
speeds?

2) Somehow OpenLook thinks I have a 17" monitor.  As a result
things shift about when my mouse is moving too freely and I'm
getting seasick.  Can XFree 2.1 be configured for the correct
screen size?

3) Minicom works fine except when brought up within an xterm,
I can't use the arrows or any other control key to select from
the dialing menu.  Has it also been known to crash after the
window is resized?

Thanks in advance!
