[Bug 473114] Re: Iiyama monitor's native resolution does not display properly

 

Well the last Xorg log you gave me only deals about fglrx, so it won't
help. Anyway, I think you should try this now, and tell me if that
works.

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 Driver     "radeon"
 Option      "UseEDID" "false"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
        Identifier "PLE2407HDS"
        HorizSync 29-81
        VertRefresh 55-76
        Option "VendorName" "IVM"
        Option "ModelName" "PLE2407HDS"
        Option "DPMS" "true"
        Option "PreferredMode" "1920x1080"
        Option "TargetRefresh" "60"
        Option "Position" "0 0"
        Option "Rotate" "normal"
        Option "Disable" "false"
        Modeline "1920x1080" 148.50 1920 2008 2052 2200 1080 1084 1089 1125 -hsync +vsync
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Monitor "PLE2407HDS"
 Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection


Ok, so in the section "Device" I added an option "UseEDID" "false", in
fact that option has replaced the options "NoDDC" and "IgnoreEDID" which
are now deprecated. That's maybe what forbids you to get all your
resolutions with the open source radeon driver, since the EDID values
are someway corrupted with the version of the xorg server on Karmic.
Sorry, I just got it to know about this on the nvidia linux driver
appendix. That's the problem with xorg, the options often change.
Anyway, if this time it does work, after we'll be able to merge this
tiny xorg.conf to a more complete one, and don't thank me, in fact, it
justs pushed me to work the configuration of xorg again, a thing i
didn't do for a long time since on ubuntu everything is easy, at least
compared to gentoo.
