OK, that "rolling" is bad sync. > /var/log/Xorg.0.log reports this: > > (II) I810(0): monitor1: Using default hsync range of 28.00-33.00 kHz That's the culprit. You need to override defaults (TVs don't usually have DDC, such no automatic detection) for hsync/vsync. Add a "HorizSync" line to your xorg.conf: Section "Monitor" ... HorizSync 19.00-20.00 ... EndSection Note that "VertRefresh" probably hasn't to be set, since its default is sufficient. > (II) I810(0): Not using mode "736x485i" (unknown reason) Hm, I can not explain why this would be "unknown", though. For me, this seems like another case of "hsync out of range"... -hwh -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
