I had a problem with my iMac in that the second monitor kept flickering black every few seconds. After much pulling out of hair, I managed to sort it by using SwitchResX, creating a new resolution with a slightly different refresh rate.

Well, I've now reinstalled Leopard, and I'm not sure what files SwitchResX modified.

I have a mountable backup image of the old installation and I just need to know what files to copy across.

I've copied over Users/Me/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.windowserver.6881753F-E268-5D65-B162-DE4A346FC4E3.plist
and
I *think* one other one (I cant remember which .plist file it was).

Rebooted and I still have the problem, so I assume I've missed the correct file....

Any ideas?


I dont know what settings I used either so can't redo it :$
 
Aha!

Damn, sorry about that. I did try a-googling, and even read that page, but missed that bit :$

Sorted it now anyway, thanks!
