The very first xorg.conf and Xorg.log I posted in this thread contained those HorizSync and VertRefresh settings. Running with them currently outputs [EMAIL PROTECTED] (that Hz count isn't a typo. It's now 55, where it before was 56). This is part of the reason I'm so baffled this doesn't Just Work<tm>: During my first attempts without a config file, DDC seems to detect all the right settings but for some reason decided to skip the 1680x1050 mode. The hints about using 915resolution to massage the i810 driver seemed to be the missing bit, but even with the following settings, the monitor won't go above 1280x1024, hence I'm still interested in any comments that might help resolve this: tori$ sudo 915resolution -l Intel 800/900 Series VBIOS Hack : version 0.5.2 Chipset: 855GM BIOS: TYPE 1 Mode Table Offset: $C0000 + $29f Mode Table Entries: 39 Mode 30 : 640x480, 8 bits/pixel Mode 32 : 800x600, 8 bits/pixel Mode 34 : 1024x768, 8 bits/pixel Mode 38 : 1280x1024, 8 bits/pixel Mode 3a : 1600x1200, 8 bits/pixel Mode 3c : 1680x1050, 8 bits/pixel Mode 41 : 640x480, 16 bits/pixel Mode 43 : 800x600, 16 bits/pixel Mode 45 : 1024x768, 16 bits/pixel Mode 49 : 1280x1024, 16 bits/pixel Mode 4b : 1600x1200, 16 bits/pixel Mode 4d : 1680x1050, 16 bits/pixel Mode 50 : 640x480, 32 bits/pixel Mode 52 : 800x600, 32 bits/pixel Mode 54 : 1024x768, 32 bits/pixel Mode 58 : 1280x1024, 32 bits/pixel Mode 5a : 1600x1200, 32 bits/pixel Mode 5c : 1680x1050, 32 bits/pixel I've also tried variations on the above, including setting every single mode to 1680x1050. -- I prefer the dark of the night, after midnight and before four-thirty, when it's more bare, more hollow. http://a.mongers.org
