Hola! I have an NEC Multisync LCD1765. I have not been able to get this monitor to work with RH9. I tried Mandrake 9.0 and the monitor worked without problems. I tried Mandy for awhile, but I really want to go back to Redhat if possible. I have tried to merge the working XF86Config files from M9 into the RH9 version without success. My attention is currently focused on the horizontal and vertical sync rates. If I enable the Redhat settings at 60Hz and 60Hz, there are no errors, but the monitor reports "No signal found- going to sleep". I am currently booting to a prompt, so I can use CTRL-ALT-BKSPC to log out back to the prompt. When I return to the prompt, the screen is full of the typical messages one gets when logging out of an x server to a prompt. If I enable the Mandrake settings (by commenting out the appropriate set of values), I get the following errors: (EE) VESA(0): No matching modes (EE) Screen(s) found, no none have a usable configuration Fatal server error: no screens found. My Frankenstien XF86Config file is enclosed. I know somebody out there has the answer or a really good hunch. All commnets and suggestions appreciated. Lenard, your suggestions will be wasted on me, since I am using a Microsoft newreader until I can get Redhat working or go back to Mandrake. Thanks, all!
