I also have the 2MB verison (see my other post a few minutes ago).
This monitor (a 20" IBM P200) will do 1600 x 1200 @ 75Hz non-interlaced
(supposedly). Its horizontal frequency is: 30-96Hz and its vertical
frequency is: 48-160Hz. Max addressability: 1600 x 1280, max flicker-free:
1600 x 1200. - If that helps anyone with an idea...
I entered the vertical and horizontal frequency in xf86config by choosing
the 'other' options.
Does anyone know how to disable 8bpp and 16bpp? I tried entering zero for
those, but X said it could find a display or something similar.
Thanks,
Ron
