hi all, I'm running x windows on top of red hat linux 7.2 on an old Dell Inspiron 3000 with a NeoMagic 2160 card and it works great... the only problem is when I plug into my port replicator, the attached (Dell M770) monitor displays only 'Signal Out of Range' once x windows starts... console stuff runs just fine... I'm a linux/x windows newbie (hence my subscribing to this list ;P) and I'm curious as to whether it's possible to: 1. set up x windows so that it can work with two totally different monitors with different horizontal and vertical sync capabilities, and if so: 2. choose which configuration to boot into at start up (as far as which monitor to use is concerned), or (even better): 3. detect whether or not I'm plugged into the port replicator or not and boot with the appropriate h and v sync settings any help would be greatly appreciated! thanks!
