It is a stupid suggestion, but do you have any of those pesky ViewPort lines
in your XF86Config? If yes, delete all of them, if no your fate lies the way
of Video-Timing-HOWTO. How horrible.

because of the bloated screen. Any more suggestions? --Hans

12.6 MHz (scaled from 25.2 MHz): 31.5 kHz, 70.2 Hz
(VScan)
Why is it scaling down to 12.6 MHz?
Hopefully your monitor can take 800x600. Do this: Go into the XF86Config fle.
(Make sure there is only ONE.) Search for 640. Delete EVERY line with it.
Delete all lower resolutions too, i.e. 320x240, and so forth. Set your
DefaultColorDepth to 16, I imagine a P-75 can handle that. (Prolly a fair
