http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=508534 Summary: SAX2 misconfigures HP mini 1366x768 display Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: i686 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: SaX2 AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jbottomley@novell.com QAContact: sax2-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.0.10) Gecko/2009042700 SUSE/3.0.10-1.1.1 Firefox/3.0.10 On first installation, SAX2 configured the display as 800x600. I had to reconfigure it by selecting the correct resolution of 1366x760. However, after doing this, the screen is slightly unclear. It turns out that SAX2 has manually added this mode line to my xorg.conf: Modeline "1366x768" 69.92 1368 1424 1568 1768 768 769 772 791 Which is the one producing the slight waving across the display. When X starts, the panel EDID recommends this mode (which gets ignored): (II) intel(0): Printing DDC gathered Modelines: (II) intel(0): Modeline "1366x768"x0.0 72.30 1366 1414 1446 1526 768 771 776 790 +hsync -vsync (47.4 kHz) When I use xrandr to install this mode, the waviness goes and the panel becomes clear. So, two questions: 1) Why is SaX2 even trying to install a modeline? For modern X we can simply rely on picking up the panel EDID information ... there's no need to override anything 2) When the panel clearly supplies an EDID entry for the correct mode, why is it being ignored Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Use SaX to reconfigure the display 2. 3. Actual Results: We end up with the slightly fuzzy 50Hz screen Expected Results: We should end up with the crisp 60HZ screen recommended by EDID -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
