How do you like it? I ended up sending it back, there were quite a few stuck on greens (not very bright, but noticeable), the same with blues (this wasn't so much of an issue, but I needed to use it as firepower for them to swapit as a DOA). While I was in the shop the nice salesperson openened up the rest of the boxes (they had 10!!! in stock), and they all showed the same problems. I really like the price though, so I'm waiting for epson to swap out that batch. Hopefully the next lot are so noticeable... > > Questions I have: > > a) The screen resolution (852x480) is not in my /etc/fb.modes file, > > how can I discover the timings etc to put it there? > > Ok, since 854x480 isn't in fb.modes it tries to figure out a valid mode > in steps up from that on the fly.
