Hi Alberto,

I think the driver should only support resolutions that are *progressive*, but also at least of *50Hz*.

Why do you think so?, the 24Hz resolution seems to be the native one of the display.

Regards,
Christian.

This is why I'm using interlaced:

I think the driver should only support resolutions that are *progressive*, but also at least of *50Hz*.

    Mhm, no idea why an interlaced resolution would cause a crash.
    Maybe some miscalculation in the display code.

    But apart from that if you just connected your PC to a TV I also
    wouldn't recommend using an interlaced resolution in the first place.

    See those resolutions only exists for backward compatibility with
    analog hardware.

    I think we would just disable those modes instead of searching for
    the bug.

    I guessed so.

    The GPU is a Radeon HD5870, and the screen is an old Telefunken
    TV (TLFK22LEDPVR1).

    Since my real display got into repair I used this TV meanwhile,
    and to my surprise it froze the system.

        Hi Alberto,

        well what hardware do you have?

        Interlaced resolutions are not used any more on modern
        hardware, so they
        are not well tested.

        Regards,
        Christian.
