Hi, I've got a problem with my X configuration which is hindering me playing some games in winex. For some reason unless the games run in 1024x768 (which is my default desktop resolution) the sides of the screen are squashed like the image is being displayed under a glass. At 800x600 they run OK too but definately not at 640x480. My screen section of my XF86Config looks like this...
Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Card0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 16 SubSection "Display" Depth 1 Modes "1024x768" "640x480" "800x600" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 4 Modes "1024x768" "640x480" "800x600" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1024x768" "640x480" "800x600" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 15 Modes "1024x768" "640x480" "800x600" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "1024x768" "640x480" "800x600" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1024x768" "640x480" "800x600" EndSubSection EndSection I had this problem with the squashing before when I used to use xf86config to create my XF86Config file but since I started editing it myself or using slackware's XF86Setup my display looks correct. Even in windows I had the squashed problem. I got around this by setting the refresh rate to 75hz. Any higher or lower and the sides of the screen get squashed or stretched respectively. The only way I can get around this is by running 640x480 games in a window on my desktop which I don't really like doing. Also, just a wondering. If I added a higher resolution to my Modes is it possible to still get X to use 1024x768? I added one higher but X started using that as the default.
