helas, this line does not work for the Philips 230W5 in DVI mode (it does work in Analog mode, but it's less sharp than the digital mode) In the mean time, I figured out that the max Analog dot pixel rate is 205 MHz and the max Digital dot pixel rate is 160 Mhz (via EDID). All 'Mode line' generators seem to complain that 160 MHz is not enough to provide 1920 x 1200 (?), however the Documentation with the monitor says: Ideal resolution 1920 x 1200 @ 60 HZ via DVI ... I do not understand that this would work in M$-Windows (where the drivers are supplied) and not with Xfree86 :-( Any other hints or pointers on how I can configure/calculate is by hand are more than welcome.
