From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.4) Gecko/20030624 Netscape/7.1 (ax; CDonDemand-Dom) Description of problem: The XFree probe/Configurator doesn't recognise my combination of a Bridge Monitor BM17F and a GeForce MX 200. I don't know much about XFree, but in Red Hat 9 and in Knoppix 3.2, 3.3, I have to manually fill in the drivers in the config-file, otherwise the system crashes on boot. It must be something with the refresh-rate or so. For my monitor it should be Horizontal 30-87 and vertical 50-160. This crash occurs already with the Firstboot service. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RH9 on a system with the monitor and card 2. See it crashing 3. Actual Results: Crash Expected Results: An usable screen Additional info:
The monitor should autodetect with DDC, however I can add it to our database for manual configuration if it's missing. I just did a quick google search and found the necessary settings: http://www.bridgeview.com/drivers.htm
