Title:
LCD monitor timing misdetected: 60Hz != 60 Hz
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
Confirmed
Bug description:
X is not correctly detecting my monitors' timings. Despite being a
digital connection (with allegedly EDID), I have to force a modeline
with xrandr. The graphical xrandr tools (arandr, or KDE's system-
settings) do not work.
I used to think this was solved with the binary drivers (first nvidia,
then fglrx), but I now realise that a modeline can be generated with
xrandr and they will work with the open-source driver.
The 1600x1200 monitors are a pair of 20" 1600x1200 VideoSeven
devices, purchased in 2006, with DVI and VGA inputs. I'm using both of
the DVI inputs, (one of which via an HDMI/DVI adapter cable). They
tend to be a bit fussy about being driven at the required 60Hz x 75
kHz, saying that the signal is out of range: they need 60x75, they are
getting 60x75, but it's not good enough!).
I attach xorg.log to this. Also, here is what I get when I run xrandr
(to list modes), then when I run my xrandr.sh script , then xrandr
again. The 60 Hz mode is now listed as "59.9".
I'm filing this on xserver-xorg-core (2:1.15.1-0ubuntu8), though it might be a video-driver bug: xserver-xorg-video-radeon
#Output of Xrandr. At this point, only the DisplayPort monitor works rightly.

Now I run xrandr.sh, to add and apply new modes.
[rjn@chocolate ~]$ ./bin/xrandr.sh
This sets up my 3-head display. It can be called from ssh, as the display is forced to :0
* The 2x VideoSeven 1600x1200 displays don't normally light up at all (they think the signal is out of range at 60 Hz, Xrandr's version is 59.9 Hz)
* The Samsung monitor (1920x1200) comes up at 1600x1200
* Everything is cloned, rather than 3 in a row
The modelines for the VideoSeven displays are from 'cvt 1600 1200 60' .
Now doing it... this may take a few seconds...
Creating new mode 1600x1200_60.00...
Adding this mode for the DVI-0 and HDMI-0 outputs...
Setting the modes and DPIs for the 3 outputs DVI-0, HDMI-0, DisplayPort-0...
Arranging the displays 3 in a row (DVI-0, HDMI-0, DisplayPort-0)...
Done
Now, all monitors work as they should, and here is the output of
xrandr again.
