Unhappy Black screen


My computer shipped with nVidia Quadro FX and a Dell 1800FP flat panel monitor and was loaded with RH9. I recently refreshly installed FC1 on it. Then the digital output via DVI port stopped working, with an annoying "power saving mode" message, while the analog mode still works fine. Can anybody offer any sort of help? I really appreciate it.

----XF86Config----
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "Dell 1800FP (Digital)"
DisplaySize 360 290
HorizSync 30.0 - 70.0
VertRefresh 56.0 - 85.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "nv"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "NVIDIA Quadro FX (generic)"
EndSection
----end----


Here is the monitor part in XFree86.0.log, I don't know why that it recoganize my display as an analog one.
