The whole thing, in a bug report, preferably.
- ajax
BZ: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=236414
Attached 3 copies of Xorg.0.log:
First right after graphical login running with 'intel', monitor is
'out of range' (77.8Hz).
Second above, plus ran 'xrandr --rate 60': monitor stabilizes
Third, changed xorg.conf to 'i810': running with 75 Hz (monitor agrees).
thanks in advance.....
