Dear all,
Reminder, today we have volunteers meet at GandhiMandapam, 5pm.
Please dont forget to post the meeting details.
Hi Luggies,
I bought a new 4 port KVM Switch (ATEN). I am using Fedora 11 as my
Primary OS. When I connected the KVM Switch with my Viewsonic (VA192w)
Monitor the Max Resolution of my system is not setting (say 1440x900).
It is by default set to 640x240 something like that. I tried to manually
reconfigure the xorg.conf. But, I never succeed. Then google and Xorg
Logs helps me a lot. From the Logs I found out the EDID which is
responsible for sending Monitor Details to Video Driver is not passed
and so the X Server is can't able to configure the resolution. This
happens only when I introduce the KVM switch. The logs shows like this:
/*< (WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): Unable to read EDID for display device CRT-0
191,192c190,191
< (--) NVIDIA(0): CRT-0
(Logs after
connected through KVM)
< (--) NVIDIA(0): CRT-0: 300.0 MHz maximum pixel clock
---*/
/*> (--) NVIDIA(0): ViewSonic VA1912w-4 (CRT-0)
> (--) NVIDIA(0): ViewSonic VA1912w-4 (CRT-0): 300.0 MHz maximum pixel
clock (Logs without KVM)
197,199c196,197*/
/*< (WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to get display device CRT-0's EDID; cannot
compute DPI
< (WW) NVIDIA(0): from CRT-0's EDID.
(Logs after connected through KVM)
< (==) NVIDIA(0): DPI set to (75, 75); computed from built-in default
---*/
/*> (--) NVIDIA(0): DPI set to (89, 87); computed from "UseEdidDpi" X config
> (--) NVIDIA(0): option
323a322
(Logs
without KVM)
> (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1440x900_75"*/
I even tried other option in xorg.conf such as "options noDcc",
"customEDID" but nothing works.
Xorg.conf:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
SubSection "Display"
Virtual 1440 900
Modes "nvidia-auto-select"
Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-0:/home/linux/edid.bin"
NOTE: I installed nvidia driver from kmod-nvidia.
Suggestions welcomed! :-)
Thanks,
Rex
