Neat, all this stuff that gets installed that we have no idea about! 

Do you know of any good web sites for using this with FC4? I have the
man page and many Google hits are for FC 1, 2, 3 with some problems

While adjusting the monitor is possible, it is hooked to a KVM and 3
other computers so it not really an option.
