foul of the size limits.

Going through there are several other areas where they differ, but I am
really not sure what I should be looking for. Can you tell me what info
would be useful in these files? Is there any way to upload them so you
can see them?
Further research turned up many comments about changes to the xorg.conf
file related to EDID, but I don't have that file, could that be the
problem?
Thanks for your help
