    Xorg. I've read a bunch of the xorg driver manual pages, like radeon(4),
    nv(4). The problem is, even my old Matrox can do 1600x1200, but not with
    DVI. This kind of information is hard to find, and sometimes not until I
    try. Thus my asking if anyone has a card that is known to do 1600x1200
    via DVI.

    Regards,

            Jens
