I have a Sony LCD monitor (an SDM-X73, in case that is relevant), and am
trying to use it on Red Hat 9.0 with the monitor's DVI input. It works
fine for a while, but then something inevitably happens where with black
text on a white or grey background, there are annoying color auras
around the letters. There are several different colors of aura and
different letters will have different colored auras. A wide letter,
such as an "m", may have different auras on its different parts.
Some other data that might be relevent:
- This problem does not happen if I use the monitors VGA input,
rather than the DVI input, but I would prefer to use the DVI input.
- This same problem happens on two different computers that have the
same model of monitor, so it doesn't seem like the problem is a
flakey monitor.
- Power cycling the monitor does not fix the problem, even for a
period of time.
- Rebooting the computer will fix the problem, but only for a while.
- Switching video cards from an ATI model to an nVidia model does not
fix the problem.
- The problem is not very noticable with fonts that are very thin --
they have to have a bit of thickness to them for the problem to be
readily apparent.
- Alas, I don't have a different model or make of LCD monitor with a
DVI input to see if the problem occurs with all DVI displays, or
just this model.
Any ideas on what is going on here and how I might fix it?
