virtualhead and radeon hd 7290

2019-12-29 Thread j...@dodin.org

Hello :-)

I use to tweak intel video but here it's a radeon one

http://www.dodin.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Doc.AddXResolution

and sometime it needs  a virtual screen VIRTUAL1 (for example).

I now have a laptop with c-70/radeon HD7290 and I would like to get the 
same virtual screen, but can't find a way to do so.


Notice there is nothing mandatory here. The computer is a 12" aspire one 
725, so having full hd on such small screen is not really necessary.


However, I notice more and more application *do* expect full HD screen 
and open very large windows...


I use an openSUSE Leap 15.1. The proprietary driver refuses to install 
(too recent xorg :-)), and free driver works ok on HD


any clue?

thanks
jdd

Re: Using xrandr to scale screen along vertical direction

2018-03-07 Thread j...@dodin.org

I would expect the following command to then scale the screen while 
still occupying only the upper portion of the monitor:


xrandr --fb 1920x540 --output VGA1 --scale 1x.5

However, this ends up scaling the display and occupying the entire monitor.



may be my experience can help you.

http://dodin.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Doc.AddXResolution

I have a 15.6 wide lcd with 1366x768 resolution, and I wanted to display 
full hd (1920x1080)


I could achieve it after long work with use of virtual console

by the way, the goal was to scale the screen to have smaller characters, 
specially in decorations, and it works very well


the first part (where is the config stored is important because some 
tests failed because of other config misplaced


last result if a script

xrandr --newmode "1920x1080"  173.00  1920 2048 2248 2576  1080 1083 
1088 1120 -hsync +vsync

xrandr  --addmode VIRTUAL1 1920x1080
xrandr --fb 1920x1080 --dpi 96 --output eDP1 --pos 0x0 --scale-from 
1920x1080 --same-as VIRTUAL1

http://dodin.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Doc.AddXResolution#toc3

it need to be in a script at launch after X starts, for me simply 
launched by kde

But after disconnect the monitor, the driver will change resolution to 320x200.
But we will, that driver does not change the resolution. Or we can define the 
default resolution.



what mean "default resolution" if no monitor is connected?

seems it's simply the lower resolution available

do you need some remote X?

you can play with xrandr

http://dodin.org/wiki/pmwiki.php?n=Doc.AddXResolution

but with no monitor I dunno what happen nor what is the config for 
remote X desktop

Hello,

i have a x86 machine with i915 graphics.

With connected display (1920x1080) all is ok.

But if I disconnect the monitor, the resolution switch to 320x200.

How can I disable this ?

I will always have the same resolution (1920x1080)

How can I do this ?


some more info is certainly necessary

what OS?
what remaining monitor?

what do xrandr say?

thanks

Re: get full HD resolution

2017-11-20 Thread j...@dodin.org

Hello again.

More close examination of my logs and googling let me think the XW in 
the B156XW004.7 screen name is for XWGA, so 1366x768.


too bad

I just discovered the --scale-from 1920x1080 that seems to very well fit 
my needs, with --panning 1920x1080


but to makes it permanent, how can I? I tried --transform but couldn't 
find the good parameters


thanks for any help

get full HD resolution

2017-11-20 Thread j...@dodin.org

Hello,
I use openSUSE and have already asked on openSUSE forum with no result 
so far.


The problem details are here, I can copy then on the list if asked to :-):

https://forums.opensuse.org/showthread.php/528183-Get-a-HD-resolution-on-reluctant-hardware

summary is I expect my hardware LCD to be full HD 1080, because I got 
full HD working during a week or so, but an update killed the process 
and I then can't get more than 1366x768 :-(.


the computer is an ASUS N550JK, optimus, graphics:

NVIDIA® GeForce® GTX850M 4 Go DDR3
INTEL i810 HD graphics 4600

nothing in the bios to activate/deactivate any one. Bumblebee seems to 
works.


I *can* have full hd on external TV that needs tweeking with xrandr, but 
on internal I get


xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00"  173.00  1920 2048 2248 2576  1080
