Sony CPD-520P MOnitor and Radeon 64mb VIVO interfernce OT



I just recently purchased a 21" Sony CPD-G520P monitor to use with my debian woody box. The current configuration of the system are as follows:

Tyan Tiger 230 w/ 2X P3 EB 1Ghz CPU
Radeon 64Mb VIVO Agp video
Ensoniq ES 1371 PCI
Plextor 16/10/40
Hitachi DVD
IBM 40GB HD

The monitor it replaced was Mitsubibshi Diamond Pro 17TX. The problem I'm having is hard to describe. It looks like there is interference along all the vertical borders on anything on the screen as well as text. It is not static. It is constantly moving and very small but there nonetheless. The best way to describe it is like very small squigling, almost bug like. I have tried many things to alleviate this to no avail. Moving the box away from the CRT, using a $100 hi-fideluty SVGA cable, moving the speaker away from the CRT, using a different outlet and using the second VGA input. Doing a google search brings me to this page www.involution.com <http://www.involution.com/sony-cdp-g520.php>. Two e-mails to this gentleman and no response. I tried swapping the Radeon for an old Matrox g200 8Mb agp card and this setup exhibits NONE of the problems I outlined above.

I was wondering if anybody has any similar problems of this type. I need the Radeon for it's 3d support and the card cost me $180 when I purchased it a year and a half ago. I have also tried using windows 98 and the interfernce is still there. Any questions or comments would be appreciated.
