Hi Larry,
I am in the same boat. I have an old PowerMac 8500 that has onboard video (one of two Ati choices, but I can't tell which exactly) and an even older fixed res. display (it's a Sony Trinitron, but it has the Apple video connector, DB-15, I believe) 832 x 624.
In trying to use this beautiful monitor, I played with the GUI settings for video (XFree in Mandrake 9.1) and messed things up (I was using a peecee monitor (MegaImage 15", not supported) with a Viewsonic Mac video adapter at 640 x 480 just to install).
If you can point me in the right direction - how do you obtain the proper settings and how do you enter them in text mode (I cannot access the Xserver in either text mode or graphical, e.g. KDE).
I have tried the following website to obtain settings, but was not successful, maybe you will be: <http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl>
Best George
