For years now I only used "normal" monitors on windows, linux, FreeBSD but soon I'll get a Samsung 930BF TFT screen. What I'd like to know is, if Xorg is capable of "seeing" this monitor and sets the right options. I know it does a good job with other monitors, but as I understand TFT's are quite different in some aspects. Do TFT's use HorizSync and VertRefresh the same way as normal monitors? Maybe I worry about nothing, but I hope someone will explain things to me than. -- dick -- http://nagual.st/ -- PGP/GnuPG key: F86289CE ++ Running FreeBSD 6.1 ++ The Power to Serve
