Reasonably sure, I owned a PCI version first and used it successfully without those 2 lines. WHen I bought a VL-BUS version for another machine I merely copied the XF86Config file across expecting it to work as is. The first thing I noticed was the high end resolutions were tossed by the server on startup because it didn't determine that the RAMDAC could run @ 135mHz, so it stopped at around 70 (?). Adding those 2 lines made the problem go away! Steve Passe smp@teal.csn.org
