https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=341963#c331621 Summary: NV 6600, Acer 22W -- Wrong Resolution Detected w/nVidia Drivers Product: openSUSE 10.3 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: openSUSE 10.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jabailo@texeme.com QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Beta-Customer Created an attachment (id=183531) --> (https://bugzilla.novell.com/attachment.cgi?id=183531) Set of x.conf and x logs Using the basic OpenSuse nVidia drivers, I get 1680 x 1050 autodetected correctly for my Acer 22W. If I switch to the G01 drivers for X11 and nvidia I get set to a screen of VESA 1024 x 768. If I try sax2 to change the monitor to LCD 1680 x 1050 it shows an unusable screen with part of the image running off the top and a resolution that looks like 640 x 480. I have attached the xorg.conf and xorg.0.log for these three situations: 1) Running with basic drivers. Display works but no acceleration. 2) Using the G01 drivers but no manual changes 3) Using the G01 drivers but using the last suggested Option for "ModeValidation" "DFP-0: ... " (from bug#331621) I tried the earlier fixes as well but they had the same result. To fix, I uninstalled with YaST2 at the line command and rebooted.

So nv driver detects the right resolution fine, but nvidia doesn't. Could you create a configuration with SaX2 for the native 1680x1050 resolution? Do not test, just save it. Then run the Xserver with "X -logverbose 9 :1", wait until you see the mouse cursor and terminate it with "Ctrl-Alt-BS". Then attach /etc/X11/xorg.conf and /var/log/Xorg.1.log. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Looks like your monitor is not detected, so you need to specify it manually in SaX2.

The 1680x1050 resolution was found AND I have acceleration. Plus, my GNOME desktop looks extra sharp! Someone must have posted a fix in the nVidia drivers (?). Anyway, it's all working now!

After that I did a normal sax2 and it had already preselected all the right settings -- it even found my exact monitor specification, Acer 2216. I ran the X server with logverbose as you requested and have attached the log (I attached the .1 log because I rebooted after running the verbose command). When I ran the X command with logverbose, it displayed the cursor with the high resolution on the black and white screen. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
