The XFree driver under Linux must be able to do this or work around it for your screen to work correctly. i.e. a driver/configuration for a 701c will not work on a 701cs. The 750/755/360 series uses the Western Digital 90C24 video chipset, and the XFree drivers for it (supposedly) automatically configure for a dual scan. The 701 uses the Chips & Technologies 65545(?). I'm not certain about dual-scan support with the C&T. So the fact that someone has got XFree running on a 701c does not guarantee it'll work on a 701cs. That's why I said it might give you problems. ___________________________________________________________________________ John H.
