[-- Attachment #1 --] I am having trouble getting the x server to work. i have a virge dgx4 (s386c375/385) video card, and an old monitor that I have no documentation or information for. I am pretty sure I should use the xf86_svga server, and that's what i've been trying to use. i am unsure about the vertical refresh and horizontal sync rates that i should use. i've been trying to guess some, but i get either an unvewiable screen or some weird lines going down it. are there some generic options i can use to get this thing running, i.e. (640 x 480, 35 horizontal, 70 vertical, etc.). thanks.
