http://www.samsung.com/ca/consumer/detail/spec.do?group=tv&type=tv&subtype=lcd&model_cd=LN40A330J1DXZC&fullspec=F 



I'm trying to use it as my screen under FreeBSD 7.1-RELEASE with a 
resolution of 1366x768 which is suposed to be suported by the TV, 
acording with the TV's specs. I did the same with another very 
similar TV and it was working #1 without having to create any 
Xorg.conf, a plain startx and the display was perfect (1366x768).


With my new TV, X only start in 1280x720. So I created a config file 
with Xorg -configure, then I tried to force Xorg to use 1366x768 but 
it keeps loading in 1280x720. In my Xorg.0.log it looks like there's 
no support for the resolution I want :

I have a similar issue with the "ati" driver, using an ATI Radeon 9200
(RV250) which I need to force to 1400x1050 (worked with old XFree86
and the setting in the config file, as you mentioned it). The
autodetection of the screen (21" CRT) leads to stupid values that
are completely unusable.
The screen is located far from my office so I can't be in front of it 
to test, that's why I haven't spotted it wasn't working. I tought it 
was because when i take a screenshot with 'scrot' i get a full 
screenshot in 1366x768 and everything is clean, but the TV itself 
shows a 1280x720 display. I should've watched the Xorg's log instead

No I haven't solved my problem yet. Still trying to figure out why my TV 
display is in 1280x720. When I take a screenshot with 'scrot' i get a 
file like this : 2009-03-18-104527_1360x768_scrot.png. But in the 
Xorg.0.log it clearly shows the resolution of the TV itself :

I tried 'xrandr'  in my .xinitrc file, which only affect my 
screenshots... I also tried Prefered Mode in the Xorg conf, no effects. 
Any tips would be very appreciated ! Thanks.

resolution of 1366x768 which is suposed to be suported by the TV, 
acording with the TV's specs. I did the same with another very similar 
TV and it was working #1 without having to create any Xorg.conf, a plain 
startx and the display was perfect (1366x768).


With my new TV, X only start in 1280x720. So I created a config file 
with Xorg -configure, then I tried to force Xorg to use 1366x768 but it 
keeps loading in 1280x720. In my Xorg.0.log it looks like there's no 
support for the resolution I want :

This is how i configured my resolution in my /etc/X11/xorg.conf :
[...]
Section "Screen"
   Identifier "Screen0"
   Device "Card0"
   Monitor"Monitor0"
   DefaultDepth 24
   SubSection "Display"
   Viewport   0 0
   Depth 24
   Modes   "1366x768"
   EndSubSection
EndSection
[...]

My video card is a Radeon HD 3450 and my Xorg version is xorg-7.3_2

Also, the only other resolution "supported" by the TV according to the 
log file would be 1920x540...but it's not supported by the TV !


Am I missing something ?

Thanks for reading.
