I have manually edited the xorg.conf many times, with many variations. Yes setting the H and V refresh rates and modes will eventually enable one of a few viewable outcomes, but such is easily broken.
For example, I went to see the 3d cube, Compiz, installed/enabled the drivers, reboot and I was back to 800x600 50Hz on a 19" CRT. No way around that other than to lose those drivers. They ignored xorg.conf completely. I have also tested xresprobe, but without success. Xorg 7.3 is slated to be released in May 2007 and that is said to not use a xorg.conf at all. Also other distros have auto detection methods that work (from what I have learned), such as suse. 7.04 doesn't work at all for me because I need a full range of screen resolutions, color bit depth and refresh rates - everything my hardware can do, before I can actually view 7.04 to see what it is like. Bryce, when you have some actual software solution, let me know and I will test it. -- Xorg resolution falling back to 640x480 and/or 800x600 when h/v freqs incorrect https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/3731 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a subscriber of a duplicate bug. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
