Hi John

I took your advice and used the rest of Xavier's RPMs and did an yum update. 
  My monitor still gets no signal when X loads.  Here is the latest X logs:

http://illson.hopto.org/Xorg.0.log_upd

I do notice that these strange messages in the logs:

(II) VIA(0): Not using default mode "1024x768" (hsync out of range)
(II) VIA(0): Not using default mode "512x384" (bad mode 
clock/interlace/doublescan)
(WW) (1024x768,Monitor0) mode clock 94.5MHz exceeds DDC maximum 80MHz
(II) VIA(0): Not using default mode "1024x768" (hsync out of range)
(II) VIA(0): Not using default mode "512x384" (bad mode 
clock/interlace/doublescan)
(WW) (1152x864,Monitor0) mode clock 108MHz exceeds DDC maximum 80MHz
(II) VIA(0): Not using default mode "1152x864" (hsync out of range)
(II) VIA(0): Not using default mode "576x432" (bad mode 
clock/interlace/doublescan)
(WW) (1280x960,Monitor0) mode clock 108MHz exceeds DDC maximum 80MHz

And I do have my xorg.conf set correctly to the specs of the monitor.  
Please Advise

Wilson
