If you create one with nvidia-settings, save it in your home, copy as root to /etc/X11/xorg.conf there will be one. The other method, not tested, is to run: kdesu nvidia-settings give root password when asked, setup whatever is possible from graphic screen and save xorg.conf. This time it will go directly in /etc/X11/ , but you will not have original in your home, so you have to become root and create copy. This copy is essential when your play with xorg.conf goes wrong and you can't start X anymore. Then go back to Michael's message and see how to modify "obtuse" metamodes, ie. play with xorg.conf. Basic problem is that HDMI is meant to connect computer to TV and 50Hz/100Hz is common value there. I checked only this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI#Communication_channel_protocols Above means that it can be a problem with what monitor tells. -- Regards, Rajko. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
