Why such a bother with modeline calculation? Xorg calculates suitable modelines automatically. I cannot remember _EVER_ solving any problem by putting a modeline in any Xorg config file (unlike for XFree86), though I do remember multiple attempts to do so.
The above modeline is the same as what I get. I'll try creating these files with the minimum info and see if I have any luck. Will be at least a few days before I can ascertain anything though.
Its a good thing that modelines apply to monitors! When I got a new flat panel screen it "just worked" with my main desktop but would not work with the other boxes hung of the KDM switch. So I went in to the log file on the main machine and there was a record of the modelines that x.org was generating. I copied that to the 50-monitor.conf along with the "Section Monitor" wrapper and id and not it works on that machine too. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
