Oh dear,
It's getting worse! ;-)
I can still see the EDID etc options in there, can you remove them?
So:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "BenQ W100"
#Option "ModeValidation" "AllowNon60HzDFPModes"
#Option "ModeValidation" "NoDFPNativeResolutionCheck"
#Option "DDC" "False"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "NoDDC"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]"
Monitor "BenQ W100"
DefaultDepth 24
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768_70" "1024x768_60" "1024x768"
"800x600_70" "800x600_60" "800x600"
EndSubsection
EndSection
Oh and use startx -- -logverbose 255 (The 255 give's lots
more useful info!).
Cheers
Steve
