>Your laptop screen is 1366x768, right? Yes >Swapping between that and 1920x1080 can be problematic. I have been using the older 42" for the past six months without issue. I was connected to it via a VGA cable. I have tested HDMI to the older 42" and it works fine.
>Which DE are you running at what version? I'm not using a DE, just a WM (dwm). >What do Firefox or SeaMonkey report if you open >http://fm.no-ip.com/Auth/dpi-screen-window.html ? Does what either >report make sense to you? laptop - http://i1.minus.com/ibfQOuUqdCVVLo.png I measured the black box and it is an inch. Those numbers look correct to me. 42_old - http://i2.minus.com/iQUKGjZbRMiNz.png I measured the black box and it is *not* an inch, it's 2". The other numbers look correct to me. >Does 'xrdb -query | grep dpi' report anything? If so, what? I get no output from 'xrdb -query' >Do xdpyinfo resolution and dpi match xrandr output? $ xdpyinfo | grep -B1 resolution # laptop dimensions: 1366x768 pixels (277x156 millimeters) resolution: 125x125 dots per inch $ dtsteve:~/ xdpyinfo | grep -B1 resolution # new 42" dimensions: 1920x1080 pixels (696x391 millimeters) resolution: 70x70 dots per inch >Maybe you should upload Xorg.0.log from using each of the three >displays so we can compare? Here is my Xorg.0.log from yesterday -- http://sprunge.us/LNAT I can work on compiling these three logs. From a cold start, you want me to - boot to X using the laptop and save the log - boot to X using the new 42" and save the log - boot to X using the old 42" and save the log Is this right? >The new TV may have defective EDID. Does its behavior change between >connecting it after boot and X startup, or before? Here is the EDID information connecting the HDMI cable after boot but before running X: get-edid | parse-edid -- http://sprunge.us/Jiig I've never tried booting with the HDMI cable plugged in nor have I tried running X and then plugging in the HDMI cable. I can try those two scenarios. Before doing anything else, I'll wait for your direction. Thanks a lot for digging into this for me, it's really appreciated. -steve _______________________________________________ xorg@lists.x.org: X.Org support Archives: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg Info: http://lists.x.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg Your subscription address: arch...@mail-archive.com
