2407WFP Monitor and nVidia 6600


I have just bought a 2407FPW monitor which runs in 1920x1200. The monitor is not available in the list under FC4. Can someone please tell me how to add it in (either through and update or changing the data file directly)?
Thanks, Michael.

A 6600 doesn't support 1900x1200. It only supports 1600x1200 ... Download linux drivers from their website and it will detect the monitor

cereal83 - Plug n Play does it again! I rebooted the machine and it went into 1920x1200. I was told by nVidia in a support e-mail that it could be done. Oddly enough though, if I look at the display settings the ones for the monitor are not available. A case of "if it works don't fix it".

Problem solved.
