That looks like a great site. The bad news is that they don't list the monitor I'm working with. The good news is that I went back to Red Hat 7 and it autodetected everything and started X on my first try. I'll try 8 again in a few months if I have more time or an extra pc laying around that I can afford to have idle while I troubleshoot. Thanks to all for your inputs.
