I'm not sure if this applies more to drivers or xorg itself. I have a linux HTPC and it's connected to my television via SCART socket. My old tv doesn't support EDID and the like, so I need to use custom modelines in xorg.conf. I'd like to enable KMS to reap all the benefits of it, but all my modelines are totally ignored.
Is there a way, or can an option be added to force KMS to honour extra modelines in xorg.conf?
Even though xorg.conf remains officially supported, some things that should work in it often don't, and may or may not have anything to do with KMS being enabled or not. In these cases moving the options into /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d and/or /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc usually does work. Modelines can be put in 50-monitor.conf same as you would in xorg.conf, or via xrandr in xinitrc. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
