Hello!

I'm trying to configure my CRT from "MAG" (17') for use with XFree86/Xorg
X11.

I haven't got the manual to the monitor nor has the manufacturer a
resource for looking it up.

I am quite sure that there _is_ a list of common CRTs and their
specifications (specs). Somewhere...

At least X.org/XFree86 should have this, but the file
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/Monitors" does not exist on my harddisk nor
elsewhere.

Can anybody help with a link?

Geetings, Stephen

If I understand you correctly, you want to know what display settings
are compatible with your monitor, right ? Unless someone comes up with
a direct answer, how about trying this : install the MAG drivers for
your monitor in MS Windoze and make a note of the display modes
available, and use those for XFree86.
