I have BIG problems with both xdm and X not being able to "open the display"... I have tried all kinds of clocks settings, from ones listed in the database to one found via -probeonly command. None have worked.. I figured possible since this card/monitor combo is sort of mismatched (i.e I have a special kludge in DOS to make the two produce color) that some sort of patch or fix might be needed for this video setup. has ANYONE else experienced the problems I have described? If so is there a solution?? Any help would be appreciated. thanks
