Hello.
Having serious problems with all nvidia boards plugged on my PC, now on
8400GS.
Xorg with 2D-only nouveau driver sets invalid preferred refresh rate
60hz on
SAMTRON 73v, when 75hz needed.
How old is this monitor ? Did it work correctly using the blob/earlier
nouveau ?
output of xrandr:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 8192 x 8192
DVI-I-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
VGA-1 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
338mm x 270mm
1280x1024 60.0*+ 75.0
1152x864 75.0
1024x768 75.1 70.1 60.0
832x624 74.6
800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2
640x480 72.8 75.0 66.7 60.0
720x400 70.1
I can *manually* set correct refresh rate using xrandr -r 75 command (for
example, in .xinitrc), but Xorg configuration don't recognize it at all.
Some full screen software games reset refresh rate back to 60hz.
How I can "hardcode" it in xorg.conf? I really stuck at this point.
You can find how to "hardcode" the timings/refresh rate, by googling for
"xorg modeline".
Note 1: The refresh rate change will take place AFTER Xorg is up (i.e.
currently there is not way to set it at boot time).
Note 2: The generated values may or may not work. What you can try is
startup "Xorg --verbose 9" using the blob and it should print the refresh
rate/timings used. Then you can add it to xorg.conf
Thanks.
P.S. Apologies for any typos
Cheers
