Looks like 16x10 on the 23" panel uses a higher dotclock; it's not a reduced blanking mode:
good: 1680x1050 (0x44) 119.0MHz +HSync -VSync *current +preferred h: width 1680 start 1728 end 1760 total 1840 skew 0 clock 64.7KHz v: height 1050 start 1053 end 1059 total 1080 clock 59.9Hz bad: 1680x1050 (0xb6) 146.2MHz -HSync +VSync h: width 1680 start 1784 end 1960 total 2240 skew 0 clock 65.3KHz v: height 1050 start 1053 end 1059 total 1089 clock 60.0Hz The 1920x1080 resolution on the 23" looks like it's reduced though: 1920x1080 (0xb4) 138.5MHz +HSync -VSync +preferred h: width 1920 start 1968 end 2000 total 2080 skew 0 clock 66.6KHz v: height 1080 start 1083 end 1088 total 1111 clock 59.9Hz I wonder if the Windows driver squeezes the htotal/vtotal down even further though, reducing the pixel clock requirements a bit more... If you want to run 16x10 on the 23", you could try adding a custom mode using the output of cvt -r 1680 1050, and using that in your config instead of the EDID provided mode. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/349412 Title: [GMA950] external lcd does not work on high resolution To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/349412/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
