Re: [XFree86] cannot run Xinstall.sh
You might need to type ./Xinstall.sh, if you're not, even after changing to the directory where it is. Otherwise you have to set up the path.

Re: [XFree86] X configuration for a 25Khz arcade monitor
You might study http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/XFree86-Video-Timings-HOWTO/ It has most of the details. The refresh is (dot clock Hz)/(total x * total y) and the scan is dot clock Hz)/(total x --the largest number in the x part of the modeline) There may be limitations on the graphic card and the monitor, of course. Regards, Paul Nielsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I've played around with the modeline generator at http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl, but I haven't been able to come up with a modeline at exactly 25KHz. Simplest I could get away with was somewhere between 30 and 31KHz. I have my doubts whether you can run resolutions that high *cough* at a frequency that low. I still have a question about this (a silly one because I don't know much about technical details related to video frenquencies) Why isn't it possible to run this resolution at a lower frequency and why isn't possible to run a lower resolution (eg 256x224) at a higher frequency (25Khz) ? Where is the limitation ? In the graphics cards or is it simply the way frequencies should work ? If the limitation is about graphic card, does exists some special cards which allows to do such things ? PS: sorry for these newbie questions, but I previously googled a lot on this subject and found nothing, i'm deseperated :) ___ XFree86 mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xfree86
[XFree86] Dell M60 1680x1050 LCD has ripples
We have two Dell Precision M60 with WSXGA screen and NVIDIA QuadroFXGo 700 chipset. I have Mandrake 9.2 installed, and the NVIDIA XFree86 Driver 1.0-4363, built for this kernel. With the modeline: Modeline 1680x1050 145.2 1680 1784 1968 2200 1050 1051 1054 1100 (This gives exactly 60Hz--any other refresh rate is worse, and the windows XP driver reports 60 Hz.) startx will start a windows session, but after a few seconds the edges of the windows, and text within develops ripples along the vertical edges, and it gradually becomes worse. When X windows is killed, the display may continue to be slightly ripply for a short while. The Xvidtune doesn't find any good settings. Does anyone know if this LCD panel requires other special settings of the NVIDIA driver, or some other modeline?
