Hi all... I have a Hyunda F910 monitor. Under 10.0 I was able to set it at 1280x1024. But under 10.1 I can only get 1024x768. I've looked at sax and all the settings are the same. Can someone give me an idea what has changed between the two and how to fix it?

Are you using a nVidia graphics card and the proprietary nVidia driver and also using the DVI connector? It seems there is a problem with the lookup request to return supported resolutions... Try looking at the following bug report: https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=155317 You want to look at comment #29, adding the "NoDDC" option (an alias for "IgnoreEDID". Looks like the nVidia driver tries to read the modelines from the monitors EDID block, but for some reason the information in the Hyundai isn't 100% correct, or the driver is having problems... It works fine in 10.0 with the nvidia driver for me, but in 10.1 beta I had problems - using my Iiyama monitor was fine, just the Hyundai caused problems. I haven't had time to roll out 10.1 to my production machines, so I can't check to see if this is the same problem. -- David Wright Wright Information Services Europa "I got to go figure," the tenant said.

I'm running a ASRock P4VM8 with onboard VGA S3 Unichrone Pro. Is this card the same as nVidia?

No, S3 is S3.

I tried this and no joy. It looks like I'll have to pass on 10.1 and stay with 10. I do hope that SuSE fixes this before 10.2/11.0 comes out.

Have you compared the listing for your Hyundai monitor in /usr/share/sax/api/data/cdb/Monitors for both SUSE versions 10.0 and 10.1? Just curious if that stayed the same or not. Some monitors have their resolution defined, most do not. My theory is that the monitor's definition could have changed in that file, or been dropped altogether. You could load the Hyundai monitor *.inf file via SaX2 also. That way the correct definition should be there. SaX2 will now look at CDs too instead of only floppies for this. Happened to a Samsung monitor I have but it was finally reinstated and eventually had the correct parameters too. I messed around with SaX2 and ATI drivers forever trying to fix it until I checked the monitor def.

I don't have this file, I was given this monitor. I will check on the 'net tonight and see what I can find.

10.0 and 10.1 have both given me graphics grief. Hardware: VIA MiniITX board with CE266 graphics, 17" LG 775N monitor capable of at least 1024x768@85. Sax2 and X just seem completely haywire. Sax2 gives me 800x600@60 as it's suggestion. I hate 60Hz. Click "Change configuration" and set the monitor to VESA 1024x768@85, card resolution to 1024x768. Click test. Get 1280xsomething@60. I hate 60Hz. Try any resolution. Get something completely different @ 60 Hz. AARGH, did I mention I hate 60 Hz? But this works for both 10.0 and 10.1: runlevel 3 root> sax2 -rux --vesa=0:1024x768@85 Which is to say to sax2, "Don't think, forget all your preconceptions, just do this! It actually gives me the screen I want AS THE SUGGESTION. You MUST say yes at the first dialogue box, it tests, save it. Bingo! If you hit "Change configuration", even if you don't, you won't get any more sense out of it. I have just read the bug report carefully and may (after carefully saving my working xorg.conf) try the NoDDC/IgnoreEDID options.
