i dont know if this will help, but my experience with the 1850 is that some OSes can detect that the system is capable of higher refresh rates/ resolutions than what the monitors can really handle, and it raises the levels of one or both to levels that are not good for the monitor. There should be a spot in Linux where you can set the refresh rate to 60hz and the resolution to 1024x768 (to start with).
