when I've had similar problems its been to poor configuration of X with
regards to the monitor
Case in point I have a 14 inch monitor made by Commodore that will _not_
play nice unless X has been set for a 13 inch monitor (or less)
not that that's going to be much help, but try xf86cfg to see if you cant
bring the specs back a little
