Hi

I think I just figured out the problem, its the mga driver for my dual
head matrox 550 card. I see there's some sort of issue with fedora 9
and the matrox driver. Is there a solution for this that you are aware
of?

If I chage the driver to vesa it works fine although I can't get a
resolution of 1280x1024, is there another driver I can use?

Thanks
Dan
