I'd like to use high resolution (1600x1200) with my monitor, but that res isn't mentioned in vgadb. vgadb(6) lists numbers to implement a resolution: shb, ehb, vrs, etc, then says "The values given for shb, ehb, ht, vrs, vre, vt, hsync, and vsync are beyond the scope of this manual page. See the book by Ferraro for details." :-( My monitor came with a list of resolutions and horizoontal and vertical refesh rates. My question is: how do I get from this table to the list of shb, ehb, vrs, etc. that vgadb wants? If this is non-trivial but there is some one out there who can generate these numbers, my monitor is a Hyundai P910+ with timings as folows: resolution Horiz.(khz) Vertical refresh(Hz) 720x400 31.5 70 640x480 31.5 60 640x480 63.7 120 800x600 53.7 85 1152x864 67.5 75 1024x768 68.7 85 1024x768 81.8 100 1280x1024 79.9 75 1280x1024 91.1 85 1600x1200 93.8 75 1600x1200 106.3 85
