HorizSync is enough. I made a fresh xorg.conf with Xorg -configure There was no need for this, just the above snippet would have been enough (but OTOH I am obsessed with NOT hardcoding configs). > What command will give all extant monitor parameters during operation? > xset reports on keyboard, mouse, colors and fonts but not the monitor. > > Given that X configuration is meant to be automatic, this story should warrant > a bug report. It seems to me the flat panel does not support EDID (at least there is no mention about it in the log) or maybe the driver doesn't support it. Could you maybe try a Knoppix CD and see if it detects your monitor properly? If it does, comparing logs should provide more information.
