Stephen,
Remember when you were setting up the monitor? There was that long
dialog box that (at least I know I didn't read) the first time? It
explains to use "apple-control-+" to cycle thru the monitor resolutions.
I cant seem to cycle thru the various bit depths, but i can cycle thru
the monitor resolutions.
(Also use apple-control-delete to stop X at any time.)
If you wanna setup the xconfigurator again then in a console prompt just
type "setup" and you'll get the setup dialog screen.
