Had a similar problem last night when I was installing RedHat 8 on an old machine to play with. I was looking at the name on the monitor when I found it on the equipment list. I clicked on the name and then tried to get into x. What a mess. Finally it had to find its own configuration. Don' t know if the old samsung monitor had been changed from when we bought it, years ago, or if the monitor they tested was named the same but was somehow different. All works now.
