Actually I just got a 30 mhz 60 hz refresh 31.5 khz monitor to work on a cirrus clgd 5434 PCI in 256 colours something I was not able to do before. I just optioned the card to death. ClockChip "cirrus", chipset "cgld5434", Option "med_dram", option "no_imageblt", option "no_bitblt", option "noaccel", option "fifo_conservative" (all in the device section) and it worked! The Cirrus cards are well comparitively well supported. The 2 meg PCI cards will drive any modern monitor at really high res in excess of 74 hz refresh. I cannot as of yet get the Trident 9685 TV capable card which is also PCI to work on a 60 hz refresh monitor rated for VGA if I use the svga driver OR the VGA16 driver. The UDI universal driver project will come not a moment too soon. But I believe that X as flexible as it is has seen its day. I really believe in my graphics program to get Linux in a competitive mode with other GUI's is a "thing" whose time has come! EC<:-}
