Acer X203W This LCD monitor is shown in the VESA video timing list by default, incorrect aspect ratio, dimensions, resolution and wrong H-Frequency/V-Frequency 1280x1024 (should be 1680x1050) 10.3 Sax2 monitor database didn't have it listed under Acer. Shown under VESA list but should have been under LCD. All parameters were manually added such as H-Frequency: 31kHz-83kHz V-Frequency: 56-75Hz, Size: 20.0" Wide, Dimensions: 481.5(width) x 375(height)

HP 1702 at boot, but not as to the model and resolution 1280x1024 10.0, 10.1 Used generic LCD settings for 1280x1024. Does not allow rotate to portrait view. Works fine besides that
HP 1740 Image:22px-Tick.png 1280x1024 10.3
HP f2304 Image:22px-Tick.png 1920x1200 10.2, 10.3 Required nvidia drivers for generic LCD settings for 1920x1200.

Samsung 930B Image:22px-Tick.png 1280x1024 10.2 Horizontal: 30-81 kHz Vertical: 56-75 kHz
Samsung 931cw You must select a low resolution using F3 during installation, you can update the settings after installation. Use VGA=normal in bootloader 1280x1024 10.3 I used LCD-->1280x1024 in sax2 but did not test widescreen resolutions.
Samsung 225 BW You must select a low resolution using F3 during installation, you can update the settings after installation. 1680x1050 10.2 I used LCD-->1680x1050 in sax2 but the setup is not yet perfect since the text wobbles slightly.
Yusmart 198IP workable from previous CRT settings at boot 1440x900 10.1/10.2 Configure via Yast. Select generic LCD 1440x900. I had nVidia drivers installed for my graphics
Sharp LL-M17W1U Image:22px-Tick.png 1280x768 10.1 Autodected as a generic LCD. Inserting the utility disk and doing further configuration in Yast allows autodetection of the model as well
ViewSonic VA902b 1280x1024 10.1 After install and reboot, KDE outputs an unsupported signal. FYI: Monitor supports these Refresh Rates: Horizontal: 30~82kHz, Vertical: 50~85Hz. I found a solution... Will add it soon

CRT Monitors

Brand Model Autodetected Resolution SUSE Linux Release Remark
Envision EN-780e Image:22px-Tick.png 1024x768 10.0, 10.1 Refresh rate defaulted to 88Hz, max supported by monitor is 85. I didn't realize this, until over time the monitor was dying. First the display would jump from taking up the full screen to taking up more, or less than the full screen (the sides being expaded or cut off). Then one day, the monitor didn't work at all on this configuration, but did work under proper configuration.
LG F700B Image:22px-Tick.png 1024x768 10.0 VertRefresh and HorizSync are incorrect, should be 50-160 for VertRefresh and 30-71 for HorizSync. Refresh rate is also incorrect, should be 85Hz for optimal 1024x768 resolution. I had to put # before "UseModes "Modes[0]"" line in xorg.conf to fix refresh rate.
Philips 107T5 Image:22px-Tick.png 1024x768 10.1 No problems noted.
Samsung SM997MB Image:22px-Tick.png 1280x1024@73Hz
1920x1200@63Hz
10.0 lower resolutions are at 73Hz too, but maybe it can be configured somehow.
(SM stands for SyncMaster)
