Description Dan Taylor 2001-02-20 15:48:04 UTC 
Geforce2 video card. Dell P780 monitor.  When selecting 1600x1200 @ 24bit 
the sample X session that comes up is in 800x600@16bit.
Here is a portion of the XF86Config-4 file generated by Xconfigurator.  If 
you need the rest of it let me know.

Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen0"
	Device "NVIDIA GeForce 2 (generic)"
	Monitor "DELL P780"
	DefaultDepth 16
	Subsection "Display"
		Depth 24
		Modes "1600x1200"
	EndSubSection
	Subsection "Display"
		Depth 16
		Modes "640x480"
	EndSubSection
EndSection

If you change DefaultDepth to 24 X comes up correctly.

Yeah, I need to see the output aht gets logged to /var/log/XFree86.9.log.
Comment 2 Preston Brown 2001-03-05 05:04:34 UTC 
can I please see /var/log/XFree86.9.log?  Without it, I can't help you or fix
this.

These lines say it all:

(WW) NV(0): Default mode "1280x960" deleted (hsync out of range)
(WW) NV(0): Default mode "1280x1024" deleted (hsync out of range)
(WW) NV(0): Default mode "1400x1050" deleted (hsync out of range)
(WW) NV(0): Default mode "1600x1200" deleted (hsync out of range)
(WW) NV(0): Default mode "1600x1200" deleted (hsync out of range)

(WW) NV(0): Default mode "1920x1440" deleted (hsync out of range)
(WW) NV(0): Default mode "1920x1440" deleted (hsync out of range)

Those resolutions have a higher HSYNC requirement than the monitor you picked
can do (listed at 85 kHz).

If I setup manually 1600x1200 works ok:

Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen0"
	Device "NVIDIA GeForce 2 (generic)"
	Monitor "DELL P780"
	DefaultDepth 24
	Subsection "Display"
		Depth 24
		Modes "1600x1200"
	EndSubSection
EndSection
