Mag Innovision Monitor


Hi There,
I have a MAG innovision tft 15 inch monitor which I am trying to set up under Mandrake 9.1.
I have a serial number for my monitor but it is not listed in monitor section of control center Product KF573 Model 568
Does anyone use this monitor if so what do they use for it ....

Dave T.

It's called a kludge. Look up the available 15 inch tft monitors for the linux distro--then go out on the internet and look up the specs for each one. Pick the one that is available from the distro which matches or very nearly matches the specs for the monitor you want to install. It should write a script which will tell it not to probe your monitor and just load the driver. There are other ways to do it as well.
