It does not work in 12.1, and the best refresh rate I can get is 60 Hz. Moreover, I had to install 12.1 in text mode, otherwise the monitor would go into sleep mode when the graphical installer should start.

Switching to intellegacy driver would be worth a try.

Switching to the legacy Intel driver did not give me any additional mode lines. -- 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.

Hence the issue won't be fixed for this product. In case the issue still is reproducable with a supported product (openSUSE 12.3/13.1 at the moment) or with openSUSE:Factory, please feel free to reopen.
