If we are already there then maybe you can explain? :-)
'man -k mode | grep VESA' prints
cvt [] (1) - calculate VESA CVT mode lines
gtf [] (1) - calculate VESA GTF mode lines
but what is a difference? 'man cvt' at least says "VESA Coordinated
Video Timing". V.E.R.A. for a change brings "Generalized Timing
Format (VESA)" when asked for "gtf". I am afraid that this still
does not tell me very much. Results with the same paramaters are
slightly different. 'xvidtune' allows to "tune" an image to your
monitor before you will hit "Show".
sorry, not enough knowledge. for me gtf is just a magic box that spits
out modelines. =)
worth noting that a manually-generated modeline is very unlikely to be
ultimate answer to Chuck's problem, was just adding to the note that you
certainly don't need random Windows trial-ware to generate valid
modelines.
