I recently upgraded the unstable xserver packages to 4.1.0-1. Now the margin 
has decreased to about 16 pixels (from around 64). I have not changed any config 
files. 
What is the +hsync +vsync -csync? I get the impression there is no place for them in 
an XF86Config-4 file...
Are the colour modes tweaked also in XF86Config-4 or is it elsewhere?
Thankyou for all your help,
Bruce.
