I checked the 'settings' via NT and found that it's using a refresh of 75x60. So, back in XF86Config I commented out the more aggressive: # 1600x1200 @ 70 Hz, 87.50 kHz hsync #Modeline "1600x1200" 189 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 -HSync -VSync and instead used: # 1600x1200 @ 60Hz, 75.00 kHz hsync Modeline "1600x1200" 162 1600 1664 1856 2160 1200 1201 1204 1250 +HSync +VSync This helps considerably. Thanks again for your time, k. -- Ken Marx, kmarx@bigshed.com Ok, but listen. You can't make a ten pound cake with five pounds of flour. We really have to stay focused and productive and re-engineer the process on the methodology assets. - http://cgi.bigshed.com/~kmarx/cgi-bin/speak.cgi To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
