Public bug reported:
Ubuntu 8.10 & 9.04
9.04: gnome-control-center: Installed: 1:2.26.0-0ubuntu3
This is more of a feature request than a bug report.
gnome-display-properties should allow to enter the refresh rate
manually.
My secondary monitor is a beamer that does not get detected (fully)
Relevant xrandr output:
DVI-1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
1360x768 59.8
1152x864 60.0
1024x768 60.0
800x600 60.3
640x480 59.9
I know the native resolution of the beamer is 1024*768 at a refresh rate
of 85hz, but when I activate the monitor in gnome-display-properties I
can only choose the resolutions and refresh rates shown by xrandr.
The only way around manually defining resolutions and refresh rates in
xorg.conf I have found is by adding the right mode using xrandr commands in a
script.
#!/bin/sh
xrandr --newmode "1024x...@85" 94.5 1024 1072 1168 1376 768 769 772 808 +hsync
+vsync
xrandr --addmode DVI-1 1024x...@85
xrandr --output DVI-1 --right-of DVI-0 --mode 1024x...@85
This works perfectly, but I think, if it's easy to implement, the option
should be there in gnome-display-properties.
