Resolution too high with 7-RC1, nVidia, xorg
I am having trouble getting X to use a screen resolution that is less than the maximum. When I edit my xorg.conf to add a DefaultDepth and a Mode of 1024x768, it still comes up at 1280x1024. I did not create any modeline entries yet, since I'm not sure how to do that. My GUI (icewm) works, but browsing the web creates enormous eye-strain from the high-resolution letters. My hardware is a Dell Inspiron 530 Desktop with an nVidia Card. It comes with SATA CD's, so I have to install with FreeBSD 7-RC1. I started by running xorg -configure, and used the xorg.conf that it generated. I looked at /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and it had many entries from probing my hardware. It appears there is some kind of dynamic configuration going on, but I know its using the xorg.conf, because it got an error when I changed the adapter entry from nv to vga. I actually had a similar problem on Ubuntu, and they had some xorg-reconfigure program that would let you use less than maximum values. I was wondering if FreeBSD had something similar. The DefaultDepth 24 and Modes 1024x786 entries are from the online FreeBSD Handbook, I believe I followed the Handbook instructions properly. Am I missing something obvious? From using Linux, I was expecting the Modes values to work. ___ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Resolution too high with 7-RC1, nVidia, xorg
Dear Xn Nooby, Im not sure if there is such a tool to edit xorg.conf file and limit the maximum resolution. In gnome desktop there is a graphical tool to switch resolution (System - Preferences - Screen Resolution) To make things obvious you will have to take a look at your xorg.conf file Please do change dir to its parent folder (cd /etx/X11/) and run cat xorg.conf | tr -s \n | grep -v # that should make your xorg.conf look simple and clear. There is a sample output below. It is a working xorg.conf Take a look at the section Screen It has Identifier, Device, Monitor, DefaultDepth options and 3 Subsections named Display for each depth where the screen resolution modes are listed: 1024 x 7 6 8 - 800 x 600 640x480 Hint: One of the following key sequence switches modes on a running server.

Re: Resolution too high with 7-RC1, nVidia, xorg
I was able to temporarily change the resolution using the xrandr -s 1024x768 command - but xvidtune -show still displayed a modeline that begins with 1280x1024. I copied that modeline to my xorg.conf, and manually changed the resolution, but I did not fool it. It was great to see the screen at 1024x768, so I know it can do it. I added a 1280x1024 mode to my xorg.conf display list, and it not change the behavior. I was able to get 1280x960 by increasing the lower range for VertRefresh to 70, and was able to get 800x600 by increasing it to 75. I then played around with various other VertRefresh values, but had no luck. I also tried the Horizontal values, but the did not help. I'm using a flat-panel screen, so I don't think I can hurt it. I hope! xrandr worked, though my IceWM menubar fell off my screen. xvidtune could probaly fix that, if I could get the ModeLine command to have an effect.
