Thanks to Dave Tweten's charitable response, I've managed to get X it working (although it looks awful with my interlaced monitor). The solution is contained in "The Hitchhiker's Guide to X386/XFree86 Video Timing" which can be found in the XFree86 source distribution (on freebsd.cdrom.com) in :- xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/doc/VideoModes.doc The only things that are holding me back now are my brain and my calculator :) -- ------------------------------------------- John Buxton IBM AIX Support Specialist, ADG Group AIX Support Centre, 11th Floor Alencon House, Basingstoke Hampshire, United Kingdom ------------------------------------------- Personal calls: 0256 343000 x316887 AIX Support Centre: 0256 811587 email: johnb@aixssc.uk.ibm.com -------------------------------------------
