Hi,
I have an IBM Thinkpad T42 with a 1400x1050 internal screen connected to
an ATI Radeon Mobility 9600 GPU, which I used in a dualhead
configuration with an external Samsung SyncMaster 920T TFT screen. I
enabled MergedFB with the following MetaMode and all worked well:
"1400x1050-1280x1024".
Now I replaced this external display with another Samsung flatscreen: a
SyncMaster 940BW, which is a wide-screen display with 1440x900 pixels. I
added this new resolution to the Screen section and added an appropriate
MetaMode for MergedFB: "1400x1050-1440x900".
However, the X server (X.org 7.2 on an openSUSE 10.2 installation,
xorg-x11-7.2-146.7) does not accept this mode with the following message:
(WW) RADEON(0): Mode "1440x900" is not a supported mode for CRT2
(WW) RADEON(0): (Skipping metamode "1400x1050-1440x900")
It then falls back to the "old" mode (1400x1050x1280x1024), which does
of course not look too good on this widescreen display.
I have toyed around with various other options and also tried to create
a fresh xorg.conf file from scratch using SaX2, which did not really
help or make a difference. I am stumped.
Does anyone have an idea what may cause this? Any help would be
appreciated - pleased find my xorg.conf file and the Xorg.0.log file
(gzipped) attached for details. Thanks!
Bye,
LenZ
