=== Using video modes not available according to EDID ===
 +
Normally the monitor tells the computer what its supported combinations of resolution and refresh rates (video modes) are. This system is called EDID.
 +
If for some reason you want to use a mode that is not in the list of EDID modes, you have to add it yourself. This is typically the case if you use an analog connections to the monitor.
 +
 +
Before adding a mode you have to allow it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf (this file may not exist yet), the crux is in the line containing ''AllowNonEdidModes'':
 +
Section "Monitor"
 +
    Identifier    "Monitor0"
 +
    VendorName    "Unknown"
 +
    ModelName      "Idek Iiyama HM903DADTA"
 +
    HorizSync      30.0 - 133.0
 +
    VertRefresh    50.0 - 200.0
 +
    Option        "DPMS"
 +
EndSection
 +
 +
Section "Device"
 +
    Identifier    "Device0"
 +
    Driver        "nvidia"
 +
    VendorName    "NVIDIA Corporation"
 +
    BoardName      "GeForce GTX 770"
 +
    Option        "ModeValidation" "AllowNonEdidModes"
 +
EndSection

To add a 144 Hz 1024x768 mode do the following:
 +
xrandr --newmode "1024x768_144.00"  169.30  1024 1104 1216 1408  768 769 772 835  -HSync +Vsync
 +
xrandr --addmode DVI-I-0 1024x768_144.00
 +
xrandr --output DVI-I-0 --mode 1024x768_144.00

=== Mounting the Radboud file system, Personal folder ===
 +
# Open the nautilus file manager. Note that this is not the standard file manager for the VNC computer.
 +

 +
=== Mounting the Radboud file system, Group folder ===
 +
== The best way ==
 +

 +
# Put the following in ''/home/experiment/.smbcredentials'', replacing ''USERNAME'' with a functional account name that ISC has given you for this purpose, and PASSWORD with the corresponding password. You can also use the credentials of a random employee with the correct access rights.
 +
username=USERNAME
 +
password=PASSWORD
