Perhaps you want to make a link between tty01 and com1? or, change the Xconfig to use tty01. As far as "twiddling" the monitor settings.

There is also a document (the name is included at the end of the XConfig man page) that will take you through all the technicalities of messing with resolutions. --- Ken Robinson NRNS Incorporated e-mail: robinson@nrnsinc.on.ca I am under the opinion that my opinions are my own opinions, but that is just my opinion.
