It should be, as > well as 1024x768 (I think that's the highest I tested at depth 24.) The 1152x768 mode is horrible, it has a refresh rate of 55Hz (fifty five hurts!), but the errors aren't there at that resolution. At 1024x768 it works fine (at 85Hz) now that I have the settings you suggested (although it seems quite slow, is that because of turning off XVideo?). For the moment I am quite happy to leave it at that resolution. > Does Windows do better at that resolution?

In windows there are no such problems. However windows is only willing to drive the monitor at 60Hz rather than the 75Hz I was getting in X, so maybe refresh rate is a factor as well. That would seem to make sense if the problem is memory bandwidth. In that case I suppose a new modeline probably would work, but I'd rather sacrifice resolution than refresh rate, especially now my desktop is huge! I have also noticed that if I set my .xinitrc file to: metacity & xsetroot -solid SteelBlue & gnome-terminal rather than gnome-session There are no errors, even at 1152x864, even though the only visual difference is the addition of a couple of panels. That seems a bit strange. > And to your prior question about the dual cards having an impact, I > wouldn't think so.

No, I now have Xinerama working quite nicely (although not at the res I would have liked). My next problem is to match the colours accross the two monitors. Thanks again for all your help!
