Hi all. I installed Fedora 7 on my laptop, ran and looked great, so I decided to try and reinstall it over my Windows install on my desktop. I had this problem before I think in FC5 and couldn't find a solution, so I went back to Windows.

The problem is that I have a 19" WS LCD and a Radeon X300SE which both support 1440x900. The resolution seems to be working, but there is a black stripe on the left side about 1/8 of the screen, while the screen is squeezed on the rest of the monitor. Here is my xorg.conf:

Is there an auto-adjust button or feature on your monitor? If so, try that.

Yeah I do, doesn't fix it though.
