Sounds like X could just be drawing the screen incorrectly for your monitor. That's inconsistent with the window manager having an effect on the phenomenon, though, so I could be way off base here, but I'm going to suggest that you try xvidtune and stretch your screen until it looks right. Afterwards, you can take the numbers shown by xvidtune and make an XFree86 modeline out of them if you need to. --=20 Adam Fabian (afabian@austin.rr.com) --VS++wcV0S1rZb1Fb Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.6 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFBoomb/9HEzeJgMxwRAjMoAJ9I3dj1J6mnPNvwaCX5Na2l9qRuGgCggYWJ JCNnAeY3s9/5zwEhLbROx24= =5S67 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --VS++wcV0S1rZb1Fb--
