<zhasha> and normally, DDC will automatically enumerate your display modes
<@ArtemisFowl> it doesn't. =P
<zhasha> eew, did you use ubuntu?
<@ArtemisFowl> yes. however did you guess XD (Yeah that seems to happen to ubuntu people a lot =P)
<zhasha> for some reason, do not know why, they added some stipped down version of the binary drivers that are almost impossible to get rid of
<zhasha> but you need the nvidia-glx-new, or nvidia-glx-legacy package (depending on your card)
<@ArtemisFowl> I think I tried that. may try that again
<zhasha> and then use the driver named nvidia
<@ArtemisFowl> it's a RIVA TNT2 IIRC.
<zhasha> but you need to add "nv" to the blacklist in the /etc/default/linux-resticted-modules-common file
<zhasha> its an unnecessary pain that they for some reason included in ubuntu
