I have the Monitor and Video Card spec, but I just couldn't put
them together somehow. I have asked the questions for sometimes 
now but no one ever reply to me at all. Please, please help me
out cause I'm running out of idea of solving the problems. Anyhow,
here's basically what I/m trying to fix :-

1) If I set Virtual Screen greater than the Horizontal resolution size,
   I will definitely see the screen wrap around on the right side of     
   Virtual Screen.

2) If I set Virtual Screen greater than Vertical Resolution Size, I will
   get the bottom part (the Virtual Screen after the Vertical Resolution)
   totally blank.

It seems I couldn't make use of the Virtual Screen at all. Its either I
set it to the size of the current resolution, or I'll have to live with
these during any X session.
I am using NEC 3FGx and Diamond 2001 card, running on 3.1.2 Xfree86.
Your reply is GREATLY appreciated!!
