I can't seem to get anything on gtk3 although it looks like some programs invoke it. I wrote that I wasn't sure what the display size should be to which you responded: > Save http://fm.no-ip.com/Share/Linux/xorg.conf-minimal-EDID-workaround to use as > an /etc/X11/xorg.conf template.

I fooled a bit with HorizSync and VertRefresh and at one point I got a fair font size but Horizontal was too short. not sure if this is what I should play with and if so, how to calculate the correct values. am I right that I should fool with HorizSync and VertRefresh? I have also entered: Option "PreferredMode" "3200x1800" any further guidance welcome. f. -- Felmon Davis
