Yes you must be careful with the refresh rates! they'll smoke a monitor pretty bad. Don't trust the installer to get it right, that is why booting to the graphics window option is dangerous, lost my install a few times because of that and didn't know about the kb short cost to quit out of the xwindows program. My latest machine is an old clunker and the video card won't work in the 6.2 installer, but I know it's settings so I set it and then when all is done installing I can get into xwindows fine. The trick is I set the CTX-1451 default refresh rates about 10 Hz (s)lower (on both) other wise the thing wigs out and the screen doesn't appear at all). 1Iwillie wrote: > Howdy folks: > Short and simple question here- I just picked up Red Hat 6.1 and I have an > old CTX monitor (cvp-5468).
