I'd bet that if you were to tile something like this pbm (written directly info the mail buffer; I think I have the syntax correct):
P1 16 4 1010101010101010 0101010101010101 1010101010101010 0101010101010101 and were to look at it under magnification, you'd find that a couple of the columns were missing. Ie, that the monitor had squeezed the 1920 columns into 1918. It probably can accept a range of resolutions -- just like analoge monitors of yore -- and scales them to fit its hw res. Even with KMS, I do still see a Printing probed modes for output section in my Xorg.0.log, but I see that the gtf(1) modelines do not match those, so comparing the ones from your monitor to gtf wouldn't be as illustrative as I had assumed. Perhaps the pink or purple stripe is the (intended) sync pulse. Maybe there is a bug in the atom bios which the driver needs to work around? -JimC -- James Cloos <[email protected]> OpenPGP: 1024D/ED7DAEA6 _______________________________________________ xorg-driver-ati mailing list [email protected] http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg-driver-ati
