As I don't have the Voodoo card, I didn't keep the patch, but, are there
settings in the sstfb patch that can be used to define the default
frequencies?  The only other alternative will be to get a very high
frequency monitor that supports 1280x1024@72Hz. My HP A4033A monitor has
no problem with that. But my Digiview croaked on it on my SGI Octane. So
now I have to switch out between the two boxes (Octane and C160) with
the A4033A. I haven't tried my Panasonic E21. It supports 1600x1280@60
so it should handle it OK.
