Re: XFree86 4.1.0-0pre1v2 available for i386,powerpc,sparc



Here is what I use on my iMac DV, not sure if it's perfect, but it
works properly for me:

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        HorizSync    31.5 - 70.0
        VertRefresh  40.0 - 150.0
        ModeLine     "1024x768" 78.5 1024 1033 1129 1312 768 769 772 800 +hsync
+vsync
        ModeLine     "800x600" 62.4 800 813 893 1040 600 601 604 632 +hsync +vsync
        ModeLine     "640x480" 49.9 640 653 717 832 480 481 484 514 +hsync +vsync
        Option       "DPMS"
EndSection
