Adjusting video
I'm making some progress installing sarge but now I need to adjust the
video. I thought to avoid some hassle by using the driver from
XFree86 rather than the binary driver from Nvidia. But the display is
shifted to the right and only 2/3 normal height. Before the crash,
I did have the Nvidia binary driver and it worked just fine. I have two
systems connected to a single monitor through a KVM switch so
its important that they both position the display the same so i don't need
to adjust at the monitor every time I switch. This was the case before the
crash. I did try to use xvidtune but It would not let increase the height
of the display though I was able to shift it left closer to the center.
I thought the display position and size depended on the modeline but
it seems something else is involved.
