I was spoiled in the past by being able to browse a database of known monitors, where I pretty much always found what I needed. There is no /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/Monitors with X.org. :( I've looked at the handbook, tried to find information on both X.org and Xfree86.org (a monitor for one in a monitor for the other), but have not had any luck. Am I just missing it? I've also done some web searches, but they keep returning stuff about designing a monitor database. :) Not quite what I meant. -- John Lind john@starfire.MN.ORG
