I upgraded my video card from an S3Virge to a Matrox Millenium with 8meg. After running SF86Setup and vidtune I couldn't get a full width display. After some head scratching I copied the mode line from my old config file to the new one and was back in business. I guess the setup program attempts to use the highest dot clock for the card possible without exceeding the monitor's sync frequencies. (the mga tried to run at 135 mhz, I backed it down to 85). But some monitors cannot get full width at the highest sync so you must back off on the dot clock. Might be nice to have vidtune be able to tweek the dot clock freq as well. I'm not sure how to do it manually. My old card's mode lines work fine on the new one, so I solved my problem that way. Has anyone else run into this?
