Subject: monitor loses DVI after KMS / EDID issue?
Message-ID: <87d0k6owx5....@jnanam.net>
Content-Type: text/plain
<snip>
As well as manually configuring xorg.conf (relying on the the output
of `hwinfo --monitor`) to:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Section "Device"
Identifier "DefaultDevice"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DefaultMonitor"
HorizSync 24-83
VertRefresh 50-77
Option "TargetRefreshRate" "60"
Option "DDC" "off"
Option "DPMS" "off"
Option "DefaultModes" "on"
Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "DefaultScreen"
Device "DefaultDevice"
Monitor "DefaultMonitor"
EndSection
Your screen section is the likely culprit, I had similar "dvi going to
sleep" problems which I finally eradicated with the following screen
section (note that your metamodes are probably completely different from
mine):
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Device0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 24
Option "IgnoreEDIDChecksum" "CRT"
Option "Stereo" "0"
Option "metamodes" "2560x1440 +0+0; 1680x1050 +0+0;
1280x1024 +0+0; 800x600 +0+0; 640x480 +0+0"
Option "SLI" "Off"
Option "MultiGPU" "Off"
Option "BaseMosaic" "off"
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
EndSubSection
EndSection
