https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=776545 https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=776545#c0 Summary: nouveau driver does not use the available size of the monotor Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 12.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 12.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: X.Org AssignedTo: bnc-team-xorg-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: f.de.kruijf@gmail.com QAContact: xorg-maintainer-bugs@forge.provo.novell.com Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:14.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/14.0.1 I am using a NVIDIA GeForce 8400M G graphics system with a 1280x800 monitor. Due to problems with the proprietary driver I am forced to use the nouveau driver. However this driver uses a screen of 1024x786 with 76Hz. Using YaST -> Hardware -> Hardware Information -> Monitor shows the correct size and frequency I tried to use the Obermayer repository, however this repository does not have the right version for my kernel-desktop 3.1.10-1.16.1 System Settings -> Hardware -> Screen and Monitor only provides the above options. Besides, the screen shows pink artifacts at the end of text boxes in YaST and to the right of buttons and in slide bars. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. remove the propietary NVIDIA driver 2. Actual Results: the screen in Systemsettings only provides the above given option for the size of the screen Expected Results: At least also an option to set the screen to 1280x768 60Hz -- 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.
