I am running Suse 9 pro on a new dell power edge. It workes great but except when x starts my monitor comes back with "frequency out of range try other resoultions" how do i fix this. is there a file that i can edit to change the resolution?

I do not know for sure about SUSE or Slackware, but in Redhat the XF86Config file in the /etc/X11 directory holds the monitor and video card info, including horizontal and vertical refresh rates and resolutions.

boot in runlevel 3
when you start booting pass linux 3 as a kernel argument the file /etc/X11/XF86config contain your monitor settings, so you can try changing that. |
You should set the refresh rates and resolutions to a lower setting until you raise it to its drop-off point.
ex /etc/X11/XF86Config part to change. Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName "DDCPROBED" DisplaySize 320 240 HorizSync 30.0 - 70.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 140.0 Option "dpms" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Videocard0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection |
