	I copied all that into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d, and commented out 
most of it. Then I altered "Samsung" to "HP," and  "SyncMaster S20B300" 
to "w2207h" and rebooted. That didn't suffice, even though I know that 
Fedora's list of monitors has in fact included mine for several years.

	So I'll start tinkering with the rest of the entries in that 
section, starting with 1680x1050 screen resolution, and going on if 
necessary from there. Many many thanks!
