LCD monitors
I have just bought a Mitsubishi DV172 monitor. It does 1280x1024 and is a "17
inch" monitor.
It is extremely picky about the settings that it will accept and totally
screws up the display if you use frequencies it does not like. Below are
frame-buffer settings that work well with it.
Also if you auto-detect the frequency when at a console it will look bad, you
have to have suitable things on screen when you instruct the monitor to
detect the frequency if you want best results. I found that displaying the
Melbourne TV guide in Mozilla while detecting the frequency gave a good
result (but probably anything that has lots of vertical lines and fills the
screen with color will do).
