Re: Looking for monitor sync settings

cd to that directory, then type gunzip monitors.gz
Then you can view the file.
If you can't find any info on the monitor on the net, I sugest you start
at the bottom and work your way up the settings. Like, choose most
conservaative settings for hsync/vsync.
Also, check the server you are running. What video card do you have?
You could start with SVGA server, if your card is compatible with it.

Yeah, for StarOffice you will need X. It's generally a good idea to have
it on a computer.
