X and color depth??



Hello all

	I have a Matrox Millennium video card with 4mgs installed and a
Dell VS15 monitor. It seams that i don't have something set correct and as
we do alot of web browsing it would be nice to fix this. 
	
	Now i have the following in my XF86Config file:

"640x400"      25.18    640  664  760  800    400  409  411  450
"640x480"      31.50    640  680  720  864    480  488  491  521
"800x600"      50.00    800  856  976 1040    600  637  643  666 +hsync +vsync
"1024x768"     75.00   1024 1048 1184 1328    768  771  777  806 -hsync -vsync     


	Under 640x400 and 640x480 graphics appear to look fine. All bright
and colorfull but under 800x600 and 1024x768 graphics get dark. Real dark.
Its not so bad as to cause them to be unviewable but it would be nice to
solve this problem as i enjoy using 800x600 for most things including
Netscape.

	Anyone know how i can fix this? I have a dos/win95 on another disk
in the same system and graphics are fine so i know its something with
linux/my config. I have tried to use the xvidtune but this made no
difference at all. Is there something i'm missing dealing with
color-depth?

	Any help with this is appreciated as i do alot on the web and the
proper color would be nice. And Netscape just isn't the same at 640x480 or
below :/

Thanx 
	--Rob
