If your monitor+card combo is recent, then the Modelines are taken automatically by the card from your monitor (yes, the card asks your monitor what it can support). But you can still include your custom Modeline definitions in XF86Config-4 in the "Monitor" section of your file, like this: - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName "Monitor Model" HorizSync 28-70 VertRefresh 50-120 ModeLine "640x480" 41.93 640 672 832 896 480 482 494 520 #90Hz ModeLine "800x600" 64.51 800 888 1088 1176 600 602 614 640 #85Hz ModeLine "1024x768" 97.83 1024 1072 1312 1408 768 770 782 808 #86Hz # ModeLine "1152x864" 106.91 1152 1200 1440 1536 864 866 878 904 #77Hz # ModeLine "1152x864" 106.91 1152 1236 1476 1600 864 866 878 904 #73Hz EndSection - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - BTW, I'm sooo happy now that I'm using X 4.0.1 with potato. :-) []s, Roger... -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Rogerio Brito - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - http://www.ime.usp.br/~rbrito/ =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
