[Bug 92599] Re: [nvidia-glx] unable to "set" proper screen refresh rate due to DynamicTwinView

 

** Description changed:

+ This bug appears to be a documented "feature" of the nvidia driver, and has been for several years:
+ http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/280.13/README/xconfigoptions.html
+ (Search for: DynamicTwinView)
+ 
  WORKAROUND:
  
  (in /etc/X11/xorg.conf)
  Section "Device"
-   Option "DynamicTwinView" "False"
+   Option "DynamicTwinView" "False"
  EndSection
- 
  
  ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION:
  
  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  My Samsung SyncMaster 931BF does actually support 75 hz screen refresh
  rate, but xorg lets me choose only between 50 Hz and 54 Hz. Modification
  of /etc/X11/xorg.conf does not help. xorg worked ok on edgy.
  
  Here's some info:
  
  $ uname -a
  Linux Xel-Naga 2.6.20-10-generic #2 SMP Mon Mar 12 00:02:49 UTC 2007 i686 GNU/Linux
  
  $ apt-cache show xorg | grep Version
  Version: 1:7.2-0ubuntu7
  
  The video card is Nvidia GeForce 7300GS.
