I should add that I have only seen Joel Bard's Zalman monitor briefly. We tweaked the settings a bit to improve the representation in the following way: 1) use nvidia-settings to override application anti-aliasing - crank it up to 16x if you have a good graphics card 2) add to ~/.coot file (or otherwise initialise coot with): (set-map-line-width 2) After that, it looked quite good (I thought). For the record, I do not think that Coot questions are off-topic on ccp4bb. Having said that, you might like to fine-tune your audience by posting to the Coot list (see the Coot Web page for details). Paul.
