by OK, I took the plunge and upgraded my X to 1.2 (via SLS). I was running with
a 832x600 at 36 just fine. I put in the EXACT same information in the Xconfig
and when I ctl-alt-+ over to that setting the screen is all out of sync and
messy. My setup is as follows: Samsung Multi-sync monitor with a Diamond
Speedstar Plus. With the previous version of X this set up worked just fine
(no problem with the clock). I am now wondering if I am being bitten by the
Diamond bug and need to do something else to make my set up work (like run
something called freq???)? I have made the Xconfig for this new version have
as much of the same information as the previous version to try to reduce any
errors. I can't provide the speeds for monitor and card as they are at home.
If it helps I purchased the monitor in '88 and the card in 90(maybe early 91).
I have been thru the FAQ's and will be going thru the modegen tonight. But,
I played with modegen before, thats how I came up with the 832x600 setting.
So, if modegen hasn't changed for this new version, it will probably be a
futile effort. Any other help?
