I have just replaced my monitor with a TFT panel.
When X is started (I have changed XF86Config-4 appropriately) the image will sometimes appear perfectly positioned but at other times the right-hand edge of the image appears in the centre of the screen with the rest disappearing off the left edge and the image looks a little distorted. If I then switch to a text console and back to the graphics console the image is displayed correctly.
I have never seen this with my old monitor neither does it happend on my laptop (TFT screen). Can anyone suggest why it should happen?
