I am Having trouble with Xconfig. I have the card settings correct ( 90% sure ). I cannot get the modeDB line to get my IBM 8512 to sync in the 640 x 480 mode with the SVGA driver. I know the monitor can handle it I normally run 640 x 480 x 24 bit color in windows. X -probeonly passes and looks good. startx causes no sync then crashes the X server. I am using the FreeBSD 1.1 cdrom installation. I am very happy with the packages so far. I am using a dot clock of 25 (25.226 as reported by the probeonly command). Monitor specs. horizontal 31.5kHz Vertical 70Hz. Any ideas on the 8512 sync/modeDB 640x480 mode? Please reply to Newsgroup or pmiller@netcom.com whichever is appropriate. Paul K.
