Re: Sarge nvidia: too low resolution

[Søren Dyrsting]

Thanks for all the answers. None worked. A part of my XF86Config-4 
listed below, where I have tried different settings. The settings for 
HorizSync and VertRefresh are taken from my screen manual.
I will keep on trying. The funny thing is that some tool named xf86conf 
or something, actually can display it self in the right resolution but 
it writes to the wrong config file and it disconnects my mouse and keyboard.
A kingdom for my XF86Config-4 from my previous deleted linux 
installation :o)
Thanks again. I will keep you posted if I figure it out.
Still open for suggestions.

Try adding following line in "Device" section:
 Option "IgnoreEDID" "true"
Also make sure there are valid "HorizSync" and "VertRefresh" entries in 
"Monitor" section

Hi does anyone know about this?
I have just installed the current Sarge Debian testing along with the
official NVIDIA-driver from NVIDIA's own development.
It seems to work fine, except that I can't get resolution higher than
800x600. Anything else than the native resolution 1280x1024 on my LG tft
screen looks ugly.
Facts:
* It worked fine on Mandrake 9.2 on the same hardware.
* the nvidia driver is loaded and running. Splashscreen is showing etc.
* the NVIDIA system posts several messages like this in my
"/var/log/XFree86.0.log":
(II) NVIDIA(0): Not using default mode "1024x768" (vrefresh out of range)
(II) NVIDIA(0): Not using default mode "512x384" (vrefresh out of range)

* I am running kernel 2.6.8
* I have disabled GLcore and dri and enabled GLX
Does anyone have an idea here, which doesn't involve rebuilding kernels?
Sorry, I am a bit idealistic about not building kernels. It is only for
configuration and trimming of special purpose systems, which I don't
think a regular standard desktop Linux ever should be. Perhaps I don't
belong i the testing branch then :-)
Anyway, has anyone experienced the something like this?
