I'm running a ASRock P4VM8 with onboard VGA S3 Unichrone Pro. Is this card the same as nVidia?
No, S3 is S3. Might still be worth checking to see if the "NoDDC" option is also a solution, as it looks like the monitors might have problems with their lookup table for some reason...
I tried this and no joy. It looks like I'll have to pass on 10.1 and stay with 10.
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.
HIH, michaelj
PS: I've go a Hyundai L90, so I might test it too, but it's on the Mac at present.
