Hi all,[...]
I hope that this is the right list for my purpose, if it?s not, it
would be very kind if you could give me a hint which list my topic
could belong to.
System:
Notebook: Samsung X20 XVM 1730 V
max. screen resolution 1400 x 1050
graphic ?card?: intel 915 chipset
Operating Systems:
Suse Linux 10.0 Professional
Windows XP Home
Problem description:
Not possible to run 1400 x 1050 resolution using Suse Linux (but
working very well in WinXP). Maximum possible resolution using Suse
10.0: 1280 x 1024
Problem:
The problem I?m facing at the moment is that whether I got something
wrong with my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file changes or I missed something in
the whole HOWTO because if I follow the instructions ?resolution ?l?
outputs 1400 x 1050 but the actual resolution of the screen it still
1280 x 1024. If I try to change something in the xorg.conf file then
sometimes the Xserver cannot be started up at all or it starts up with
the 1280 x 1024 resolution.
Hello Thomas,
i suggest you to edit xorg.conf by hand. I do this when my monitors won't do
what I want. First i run sax2 to wite the config file and then refine the
conf by hand.
Have you tried calculating the Modelines with xmode? For example 'xmode -x
1400 -y 1050 -r 70' (your screen res @ 70Hz) brings up:
74
68
Modeline "1400x1050" 140.79 1400 1496 1648 1896 1050 1051 1054 1092
'man xmode' will tell you more.
You have to (calculate and) paste it in the appropriate section of xorg.conf.
Deactivate the original by commenting them out. Check if the monitor section
got the right display size, HorizSync and VertRefresh values.
HTH,
regards
Rolf-Dieter Damm
