The other system which provided the replacement
monitor isn't Linux. On that system the "NetVista
monitor" gave only a black screen while other monitors
work. So there are two symptoms from the questionable
monitor: a black screen on one system and video mode
complaint from the monitor circuitry on the NetVista.
But yes, I should have put the monitor back on the
NetVista with the fresh Squeeze installation to test.
I might have scrapped a useable monitor.
