My monitor has NOTHING on the outside of the case to indicate what model it is, so I would not be able to do this. All there is is the single word "PROJECT". Windoze 98 interrogates its plug & play data and identifies it as an ADI MS-5P+. I have since seen a non-rebranded ADI MS-5P+ and indeed it looks identical. It would be useful to pure Linux users - possibly including the OP - if there was some Linux tool that did this, so xf86config et al. could say "Your monitor appears to be an ADI MS-5P+, accept/change" or something like that, combined of course with a file listing many different monitors' capabilities.
