Hello!
Before anyone tells me to RTFM, I *HAVE* and I've contacted Samsung who 
tell me they know nothing about Linux/X. This is my problem...I own an 
IBM PS2/Value Point 486DX/2-66, 16Mb RAM, 128K cache, S3 801/805 local 
bus 1024K standard, a 340Mb Western Digital IDE, and a Samsung SyncMaster 
3 SVGA 14" monitor. I've ran xf86config, got all the card info, mouse,alt 
and meta key bizzo down pat. The problem is horizontal/vertical refresh 
rates. I've experimented with all sorts of settings; no dice. It either 
hangs my system when it runs startx or tries to run it at a resolution 
like 1028x740 when there isn't enough video RAM for this. The release 
docs for this version (Slackware April '96) 1.2.13 don't include specs 
for the Samsung i've mentioned. I've tried VGA, generic SVGA and 
Monochrome, so it isn't the S3 card. It isn't due to servers missing (i.e 
X86F_S3 or whatever)...it's the bloody monitor. Does anyone out there 
have sample hori and vert. refresh and/or sync rates for this breed of 
monitor? Please help as I'm going mad!!!
