    I installed Fedora Core 1 and as usual the setup
    didn't detect my monitor properly even though it is in
    the list (Hansol 500A). I choose the proper monitor
    and continued the installation (this worked on
    previous versions of RH).
    After i installed the OS and booted it for the first
    time somewhere right after starting x my monitor
    turned itself off. I'm guessing the resolution set is
    not supported by my monitor. I went and edited the
    /etc/X11/XF86Config file - horizontal and vertical
    frequencies and resolution but that didn't help.

    Lastly I used the Redhat-config-x86free (forgot the
    right name) with the --reconfigure switch and i
    recieved this error:

    xconf.py :Fatal IO error2 (connection reset by peer)
    on x server :17.0

    The graphics card was detected properly - Radeon7000
    For the monitor i recieved some bogus values...

    I even reinstalled the whole lot and used a standard
    800x600 monitor but no luck with that either.

    Does anyone know what else I could try beside buying a
    new monitor :D

    thanks
