Could that be because there is no default /etc/grfmodes in the
distribution or instructions on how to create one? :) I tried
readcvmonitor on my spectrum and it does not recognize my monitor
file. I've had X running since Xcl was first released but I would
still like to create new definitions since some of the defaults
are non-optimal on my system. Does anyone have a 640X480 24 bit
mondef that will work on a standard SVGA monitor? I have not had
any luck creating one.
