Bug Description
I have:
- ATI Technologies Inc Rage 128 Pro Ultra TF
- LG Flatron L1953S
The default setting make Xorg looks ugly. After some investigation I found that it is dur to refresh rate set to 60 Mhz. Reseting it to 75 make everything looks much better. (I'm using fvwm-crystal so please do not advice any gnome settings). I've set the package to xserver-xorg, but it can be also something wrong with ati drivers.
Why the default setting are so bad?
What should I do to force Xorg starting with given refresh rate?
BTW. I've just run dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg and I'm going to see what happens (I tried to use Framebuffer as suggested by system).
Old xorg.conf in attachment and output of xrandr below.

OK.
The Xorg couldn't start with FBDev. The xorg.conf file in attachment.
