So I just got a ViewSonic VA2012wb from Costco (great price there)
It took me longer than I want to admit to get it working so I want to
post the important settings in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (at least in Fedora
Core 5), for the achives
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "VA2012wSERIE"
DisplaySize 430 270
### Comment all HorizSync and VertSync values to use DDC:
HorizSync 30.0 - 94.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 75.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 16
Modes "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1680x1050" "1280x800"
EndSubSection
EndSection
DisplaySize seems to be the key setting. I don't know how much setting
the others helped or not (since the monitor just didn't work at all
until the DisplaySize was set) however with these settings everything
seems to be working.
