I have a slight problem - not major but it's bugging me. I noticed that my shapes were a bit out of whack - squares not square, lines not straight ect. So I pressed the factory reset button on the monitor - it said "user timing can not reset". I called mitsubishi, they said since the x-windows is using some "custom" configs for the refresh rates ect. the monitor will not reset. So, I connected the monitor to my NT4.0 box, and it was able to reset. But, then when I reconnected it to my FreeBSD box w/X it was back to the distorted shapeds - but note: imo, it is not x that's doing it, - it's imo, only a matter of reseting the monitor to the right geometry. There are about 7 different geometric adjustments on this monitor. Does anyone have any idea how I could get it correct? Are there any test patterns or procedures I could use to (instead of reset) tweak the geometric rendition?
