Monitor question

OK - I'm usually a lurker, but now I have a question.  My current
monitor (nice old Multiscan 20seII) is dying and my support person
came by with a Sony SDM-S81 flat panel.  Nice monitor, but I'm not
sure if it is supported.  Visiting RedHat and Sony sites wasn't any
help either.  This is my first TFT LCD and I have no idea what to
expect.

Anyone out there know:
  1. if I can get it to work or if I should say "No thanks."
  2. what parameters I'll need for the xconfig routine so I
     don't blow it up   ;)

If it helps I'm running RedHat 7.1 (kernel up'd to 2.4.19)...

Thanks!
