    Manual says maximum resolution is 1600 x 1200 non-interlaced at 75 hz. I cannot read text when it's that small. Best it can do at 1280 x 1024 is at 85 hz. Manual has a section on timing that says " Synchronizing input signals (separate, composite) can be automatically selected". I honestly have no idea what that means. I do believe that interlaced is not an option at any resolution/frequency, because there is a statement in the manual that says:
    19", 0.25 dot pitch resolution, non-interlaced technology provides sharp, flicker-free images.
    This monitor is capable of far more than I will ever be able to figure out.

      1280 x 1024 is at 85 hz is good. Did you manage to make the monitor work under Kubuntu?

        Nope. Maximum resolution so far is 1024 x 768. I cannot live with that. The instructions for manually adding a resolution just above are specific for an interlaced monitor. If some kind soul would modify them for non-interlaced, I'd be happy to try to do it through code.

        I do have access to all sorts of specifications in the manual.

        Forgot to say that I added a new MSI NVidia Geforce 610 GT video card.

          There is a web page that will generate a modeline for you if you plug in the relevant values: http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl

            Code:
            $ cvt 1280 1024 85
            
            # 1280x1024 84.84 Hz (CVT 1.31M4) hsync: 91.46 kHz; pclk: 159.50 MHz
            Modeline "1280x1024_85.00"  159.50  1280 1376 1512 1744  1024 1027 1034 1078 -hsync +vsync
            Does this work?
