Thats's not what I meant ;) I thought you wanted to get that switch anyway, to be able to use the bigger/better/generally nicer tube with Linux. In that case, I thought a somewhat working solution for the short time would be good enough. > Actually, I may borrow a tube from work until my KVM > (keyboard-video-mouse) > switch comes in. Try just leaving the (to paraphrase) "not too ambitious" modelines in and deleting the others. The Modelines are described by resolution and Frequency. If the tube is really a 14", I'd try [EMAIL PROTECTED] and maybe [EMAIL PROTECTED] If these work well, you might try stepping up from there, frequency-wise. Greetings, Manuel
