Hello,

Is it save to assume that xrandr with any custom resolution (like for instance 1360x768) is not supported yet in the current SRSS release? I am still unable to get the resolution 1360x768 working with xrandr in combination with a 1920x1200 monitor on another Sun Ray (see earlier mails). I have not found any documentation which states that the resolution 1360x768 is supported for this purpose in SRSS 4.2.

As a workaround I will drop down to a 1024x768 resolution from the intended 1360x768. This seems to work with xrandr in combination with any other resolutions I have around.


Kind regards,

Ivar

I have fiddled a bit myself but I am not out of the woods yet :-(

I have set my canvas to 1920x1200 with:

$ utxconfig -r 1920x1200

Then I logged off and on again. I now have a 1920x1200 canvas which pans.
Xrandr shows a lot of modes but not the custom mode:

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*

So I add the custom mode:

bash-4.0$ /usr/X11R6/bin/xrandr --newmode "1360x768" 84.72 1360 1424 1568 1776 768 769 772 795 -HSync +Vsync
bash-4.0$ /usr/X11R6/bin/xrandr --addmode default 1360x768
bash-4.0$
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*
  1360x768       60.0
Now the custom mode is in the list but instead of 0.0 it shows 60.0 which is the refresh rate. Any suggestions on how to get the 60.0 replaced by 0.0? Or is that irrelevant?

If I then do:

bash-4.0$ /usr/X11R6/bin/xrandr -s 1360x768

I have to kill my Sun Ray session since I can move the canvas with the mouse (panning) but I can do nothing else. I also don't see the mouse cursor anymore. Might this approach work eventually? Or does the Sun Ray need another kind of workaround?

Kind regards,

Ivar

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.

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
