I tried a configuration 1024x768 using the 79 MHz dot clock but next time I started X I got 'clock not supported' or something close. Then I changed that 79 to 80 in my Xconfig and it now works for a while. I have a Sony CGM (?) 1950 monitor (19") standing around which I would like to use with the Speedstar. When some people are saying (Thomas Roell in a previous posting) that you can program this card to nearly any frequency (until it chokes) how can I accomplish this? I remember that I saved once some piece of code posted here dealing with this issue. Assumed I take this code - can I put it into some place in the X server and get that higher frequencies? -- --Chris Christoph P. U. Kukulies kuku@acds.physik.rwth-aachen.de *** Error code 1 Stop.
