> does anyone have some hints for me? ;) The conf looks good. How did you generate your modeline ? I suggest using cvt. Did you try with a reduced blanking modeline ? ( This needs an additional option in the xorg conf, something like "ReduceAllowed", serach the mailing lists' archives). Did you try with 1366x768 ? 1366x768 with reduced blanking ?
