Default CRT Modelines and stuff - where to find

Hello!

I'm trying to configure my CRT from "MAG" (17') for use with XFree86/Xorg
X11.

I haven't got the manual to the monitor nor has the manufacturer a
resource for looking it up.

I am quite sure that there _is_ a list of common CRTs and their
specifications (specs). Somewhere...

At least X.org/XFree86 should have this, but the file
"/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/doc/Monitors" does not exist on my harddisk nor
elsewhere.

Can anybody help with a link?

Geetings, Stephen

But I looked, yes, I did.

Thanks again,

Stephen,

Just pulled up an old bookmark you might find helpful:

http://www.monitorworld.com/Monitors/mag/

You need to supply a model number for the CRT but it should
provide the horizontal and vertical refresh rates you need.
