Hello,

What are the latest and greatest options for xrandr with 4.2?
I have some trouble using xrandr in combination with custom resolutions.

If I login on a Sun Ray with monitor A (a small monitor with custom resolutions) I have the following supported screen sizes:

bash-4.0$ /usr/X11R6/bin/xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 1360 x 768, maximum 1360 x 1024
default connected 1360x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 0mm x 0mm
640x480 0.0 800x600 0.0 1024x768 0.0 1152x900 0.0 1280x1024 0.0 1280x800 0.0 1360x768 0.0*

If I move to a Sun Ray with monitor B (a bigger screen) I am (as expected) unable to use a higher resolution.
My options are still the same:

bash-4.0$ /usr/X11R6/bin/xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 1360 x 768, maximum 1360 x 1024
default connected 1360x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 0mm x 0mm
640x480 0.0 800x600 0.0 1024x768 0.0 1152x900 0.0 1280x1024 0.0 1280x800 0.0 1360x768 0.0*

I was under the impression however that the other way around should work without a problem.
If I login on the Sun Ray with monitor B (the bigger screen).
The supported resolutions are:

bash-4.0$ /usr/X11R6/bin/xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 1920 x 1200, maximum 1920 x 1200
default connected 1920x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 0mm x 0mm
640x480 0.0 800x600 0.0 1024x768 0.0 1152x900 0.0 1280x1024 0.0 1280x800 0.0 1400x1050 0.0 1440x900 0.0 1600x1024 0.0 1600x1200 0.0 1680x1050 0.0 1920x1080 0.0 1920x1200 0.0*

Now I move to the Sun Ray with monitor A (the smaller screen).
The supported resolutions after the move are:

Screen 0: minimum 640 x 480, current 1920 x 1200, maximum 1920 x 1200
default connected 1920x1200+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 0mm x 0mm
640x480 0.0 800x600 0.0 1024x768 0.0 1152x900 0.0 1280x1024 0.0 1280x800 0.0 1400x1050 0.0 1440x900 0.0 1600x1024 0.0 1600x1200 0.0 1680x1050 0.0 1920x1080 0.0 1920x1200 0.0*

So it looks like the xrandr list is not updated after I moved since the custom resolution of the smaller screen ( 1360x768) is not in the list.

In the beginning of this year Loeki wrote:

But we noticed the available modes in XRandR don't get updated when you
insert your card in another Sun Ray.

Is there a way to insert custom modes or force the mode list to update upon
reinsertion?

Bob replied:

No, not today. Perhaps in our next release.

So I was wondering if there is a workaround in version Sun Ray 4.2 for this problem? Somehow I need to get the custom resolution in the xrandr list of supported resolutions.

Kind regards,

Ivar

Ps

I have had to set the custom resolution on the smaller screen with:

# /opt/SUNWut/sbin/utresdef -a -c "Panasonic LCD TV" 1360x...@60 1360x768 <<EOF
htotal=1776
hfp=64
hsyncwidth=144
vtotal=795
vfp=1
vsyncwidth=3
vcomposite=8
pixclock=8472
xres=1360
yres=768
hz=60
EOF


# /opt/SUNWut/sbin/utresadm -a -v 1 -c IEEE802.xxxxxxxxxxxx -t default 1360x...@60
