Dear FreeBSD hardware hackers,
I recently accuired a new monitor for my PC, a Brilliance 107 from
Philips. As I was flipping through the manual I found a rather odd
statement in the troubleshooting section. I quote:
Problem: Picture has a double image.
Solution: (...)
Face the monitor East for best picture quality.
Could anyone shed some light on this issue? (Preferably from the East).
On a more serious note. I was told that the Moire menu option in the OSD
could be used to eliminate the interference patterns I see on the xdm
login screen. Could anyone tell me how to use it? When I turn up either
horizontal or vertical Moire, I just get a fuzzy image, and the patterns
do not disappear.
One more question (then I'll let you go). When I more xterms about on
the X11 desktop, I get little flashes of white snow on the darker
portions of the screen. They only show up when I move windows. What is
that? Is that a monitor problem, an X server problem (XFree86 Version
3.3.2.3, SVGA), or a video card (Diamond Viper V330) problem?
Thanks for your input,
Kees Jan
