I use a 19" AOC CRT monitor with Mac OSX and X.Org (Fedora Core 2) Mac OSX set up the screen in a perfect way (few mm from the borders, perfect rectangle), X.Org no (image is shifted on the right, bumped on the right side, many mm wasted on top and bottom). Both OSX and X.Org are set at the same resolution 1024x768 85Hz Section "Monitor" is set with parameters read from the monitor manual. Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Monitor Vendor" ModelName "AOC Spectrum" DisplaySize 360 270 HorizSync 30.0 - 95.0 VertRefresh 50.0 - 160.0 Option "dpms" EndSection
I use "nv" driver on a "nVidia Corporation NV11 [GeForce2 MX/MX 400] (rev b2)"
Created attachment 754 [details] Photo of correct monitor settings (OSX)
Created attachment 755 [details] Photo of wrong monitor settings (X.Org)
The monitor has adjustment controls on it to handle this. The odds that X will pick exactly the same modeline as OS X on a CRT are very unlikely.
