I'll try taking out all the extra modelines I have put in that I worked out carefully with xrandr and cvt.
I don't get why it seems to be as common as it is that people manually generate modelines to put into xorg.conf. I can't remember ever solving a problem doing so in the eons since Xorg replaced XFree86 (and most CRTs were replaced by flat panels). Xorg does what cvt does automatically given either valid EDID and/or HozizSync and VertRefresh.
There are a class of situation where EDID does not work. The one I have is that I'm using a KVM switch and it does not do the EDID stuff properly as you switch back and forth. It is even worse if one of the machines on the switch is Windows! -- When nothing is sure, everything is possible. - Margaret Drabble -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
