for some graphicscards the xserver knows the option sync_on_green or
so. Grep the doc-dir. On console I dont know a solution. With some
knowledge in electronics you can make a adapter which mixes the two
sync-sigs to a sync-on-green-sig. Ask a searchmachine. You should get
>= three different solutions.
