Monitor will have nothing to do with this; screen goes blank and monitor displays a little box saying "Video mode not supported". >How-To-Repeat: Run the program on a system with a SyncMaster 760V monitor. (Other TFT monitors may be similarly affected; anybody else with data points?) >Fix: A suggestion: The configuration program for XFree86-3.3.6 works with this monitor. Find whatever the new configuration program does differently in setting up the display and change it to do it the old way? >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
