Hi
I have found the need for many low res screen resolutions for such
thingas as movie playing, xmame, etc.
The method XFdrake uses to enable modes is to enumerate each mode in the
XF86Config file. For example (a newly created file):
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x960" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubsection
It would be better (at least under XFree 4, which automatically provides
resoltions from the monitor, if it is capable), to not limit the modes
provided to the user
If I use instead, the following:
Subsection "Display"
Depth 24
Virtual 1280 960
EndSubsection
My maximum mode is exactly the same as before, but I have many more low
resolution modes.
For my monitor, the full list available modes I get is:
1280 x 960 @ 85.00
1280 x 960 @ 60.00
1152 x 864 @ 75.00
