Mates.
I have a new Acer AL2216W that runs native at 1680x1050. The install
is
Suse 10 with xorg-x11-6.8.2-100.2. The video card supports 1680x1050
natively and works well under M$. I cannot for the life of me get the
display to work under suse 10 at anything other that 1280x1024.
I have installed and used 915resulution to patch Mode 30 to 1680x1050
at
24 bits/pixel:
I have edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf to include the proper modeline created
with
gft to include the following:
Section "Monitor"
Option "CalcAlgorithm" "XServerPool"
DisplaySize 452 283
HorizSync 30-70
Identifier "Monitor[0]"
ModelName "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
Option "DPMS"
VendorName "--> LCD"
VertRefresh 59-63
UseModes "Modes[0]"
EndSection
Section "Modes"
Identifier "Modes[0]"
Modeline "1680x1050_60.00" 147.14 1680 1784 1968 2256 1050 1051 1054
1087 -HSync +Vsync
EndSection
X starts just fine and Sax2 shows the resolution to be at 1680x1050
at
60 Hz, but the display is still squished like 1280x1024 is being
stretched
to 1680x1050. The Image fills the screen just fine, but it is obviously
*not* right. Also, KDE control center -> display shows the resolution at
1280X1024 at 75Hz and I cannot select 1680x1050 in the control center.

It helped me out with 10.0 and an ACER TM6003 (1400x1050).
No problems in 10.2 btw.
Thank you for the information. That was a great page that looked exactly
like it should work, but *uugh* it didn't. I am uning 915resolution instead
of the 855resolution so I will give that a try. Any other thoughts???
