Current thought is to install the system using the crt monitor, then set
the resolution using the 173 driver, write out to xorg.conf then hook up
the new monitor and see what happens,
Will get back to you when I have gone through that process.

Good on you, Chris. It's usually something we humans just overlook, and
the damn computer is doing what we tell it to do, even if we didn't. To
anyone else reading this, take a Percoset (if you LEGALLY have a
prescription, for pain relief) and it'll make absolute sense. Ric
We can't get percoset in this crazy country!!

When I twisted the heck out of my knee in Bermuda, running and acting
like I was still 20, then slipping and falling wrong, I could get
codeine in little aspirin boxes next to the breath mints. That, and a
Goombay Smash or two, and I was ready to snorkel dive with the lOvElY
fishes ...and did. :) Ric
