Hello I have Linux7.1 installed in my PC and the monitor is KDS Visual Sensation. Every time I shut down or reboot my machine, and it shows: OUT OF RANGE Hf: 30Khz - 70Khz Vf: 50hz - 150hz CURRENT FREQUENCY fh: 83.5Khz fv: 186hz and then I have to push down reset button to restart my computer. Could someone tell me how to fix this problem?

My guess is you have incorrect horizontal/vertical sync ranges. Check your monitor's manual for the these values and use a program like 'xf86config' to change to the correct settings.
