Re[2]: Odd X behavior

[Tim Gray <tgray@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Bruce,

The chipset is a Cirrus Logic GD7548.  The SVGA server is the one that
is recommended and the one that I am using.  I couldn't get any
information about the LCD screen's sync rates from Compaq so I've been
guessing (cautiously).
