If you're using binary nvidia driver I think it should autodetect your |
| 18 |
monitor and everything should be fine... no need to specific modelines |
| 19 |
or anything like that (however if you have done that with your old |
| 20 |
monitor you may need to remove it). I switch between monitors often |
| 21 |
and it Just Works(tm). :) |

If you use framebuffer maybe you'll need to edit your grub config to |
| 24 |
use a different mode, but LCD usually just scales invalid modes to fit |
| 25 |
the screen anyway. I don't think you should worry about damaging it. |
