With no information on what Linux distro you are running or whether you are running XFree86 or Xorg.. the best I can do is tell you to manually edit the X11 configuration file and change the HorixSync and VertRefresh settings to the appropriate values for the new monitor as found in the Monitors manual or the manufacturers specifications on their website.

One of hte following should be the config file for X on your machine.. the settings are the same in either file..

/etc/X11/XF86Config
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4
/etc/X11/xorg.conf

sorry for not providin enough info
wel i am using linux enterprise edition
and my file is Xf86conf
so shall i jus open that file and add the settings u mentioned

i'll try that
thanks

thanks for ur help dude
everythin's workin great after i applied the settings u mentioned
thanks again

Did you use the values in my example ? Or did you look up the proper values for your monitor ?

If you used the ones in my example and they worked that's great, but you may get petter performance from your monitor by using the specifications provided by it's manufacturer..

Either way I'm glay you can get video now :)
