Description of Problem: Would like to donate these settings for the EMC 564SA monitor with a product number of SA-560 from the manual which are also availible from a sideways pdf from the fcc web site using the fcc id search on IJE 564. This monitor will do upto 800x600 and is non-interlaced. Hor. 30-64Hz Vert. 50-100KHz Acording to the manual the other model numbers will do upto 1024x768 also non-interlaced. Hor. 30-50Hz Vert. 50-100KHz I will include the sideways PDF manual and a screenshot of the display settings in X These monitors have been marketed under several names but I have found it is almost impossible to find the manual online.

While you're at it (I suppose this is package hwdata, not XFree86), add another one (http://www.peacock-products.de/cms/printable.php?id=50, using it right now): Manufacturer: Peacock Monitor name: Peacock P1796 C2 EISA ID: ACTb013 (from kudzu -p -b ddc) Horiz sync in kHz: 30 - 97 Vert sync in Hz: 50 - 150 DMPS support: yes
Thanks for the settings. As a note, the easiest way for us to add new monitors to the Monitor database, is by someone providing us with the Microsoft Windows monitor .INF file for the monitor. These come on floppy disk or CDROM with a new monitor, as well as from a manufacturer's website. If you could attach the .INF file, I could easily add the entire line of monitors in one shot. Thanks.
Hello, does the NEEDINFO state mean that you want the files for these monitors too? Failing the .INF file, would a patch work too? (I understand that using the windows INF file is a way to make sure the monitor works at least as good as under windows, and provides less potential for errors in manuals or data entry.)
OK, the manufacturer provides an INF file at http://212.8.219.71/PEACOCK\MONITOR/PMON70.INF, but it's too old and doesn't contain my monitor )-; (that backslash is in the original link from the morons)
Well if that is the case why don't someone there go and get wintendos ME and just inport all of there drivers and stop screwing around. Anyway if you can tell me which cab files I would be glad to send them all to you then you could have a a huge driver database like wintendos. But I am running linux.
Moving on to 8.0 release.
I very much take offense at your last comment.
Well, sorry if I found it a little unreasonable to be asked for files from another operating system. I also find it unreasonable that now I am running Redhat 9 and still had to come here to get the settings for my monitor to work correctly after I went through the trouble to find and provide them.
"You can get further with honey, than you can with guns." Not quite sure who originally said that, but it holds as true today as when it was coined.
Added in cvs, will be in future builds.
