I just installed a lovely little ProView TFT ....
and had quite a few problems configuring it, until I decided to see how well the RH install can recover from problems..
I 'moved' my X config file to a .bak file, then rebooted into runlevel 5
Since it couldn't find a valid X config file, it went into recovery mode, started the xconfiguration program, recognised the new TFT screen, probed the screens parameters successfully, and wrote me a new X config file, then restarted X quite happily.
I could then load the back X config file and the new one into an editor and amalgamate them.
Mebbe this isn't the proper way to do it, and the usual warnings apply, but hey, it worked!

It strikes me that your VertRefresh should be 60.. unless your flat panel can really do 50-75?
Manufacturers spec says:

I'm assuming the little '~' means the same as '-'.
