_Hi developers_ :)
there's trouble with setting up X for 64 Studio 3.0-beta3. I don't know
if the others are fine with X now. I could (half-)solve the trouble I
had, but I don't know a solution to solve this in general.
I guess this is the complete thread:

Developers, please directly reply to me or to the users list. I'm not
receiving mail from the developers list and I also very seldom write to

_Hi users_ :)
I was able to solve it for this set up and for GNOME, it's not a
solution in general.
I puzzled out a xorg.conf and copied it to /etc/X11, see attachment.
Sources for the puzzle were those two xorg.configurations:
http://lists.64studio.com/pipermail/64studio-users/attachments/20091217/338c7e9e/attachment.txt
http://lists.64studio.com/pipermail/64studio-users/attachments/20091217/338c7e9e/attachment-0001.txt
After a restart the xorg.conf kept unchanged:
spinymouse-s...@64studio:~/Desktop$ diff xorg.conf_puzzle /etc/X11/xorg.conf
No diff.
But the session started with a resolution of 1024x...@60hz, using the
GNOME utility it's possible to select different resolutions (I guess all
possible resolutions) and frequencies (not all frequencies, but 60, 75,
85 and 90Hz). It's possible to set up the wanted 1152x...@90hz (results
in 82.0KHz : 90.0Hz).
I checked it with a second restart. Unexpected the session automatically
started with the wanted 1152x...@90hz (even if it resulted in *81.9KHz*
and 90.0Hz) :), all resolutions still seems to be available, but now
only 75, 86 and 90 Hz are available, btw. GDM is using a higher
resolution @ 60Hz :D.
Running
spinymouse-s...@64studio:~/Desktop$ diff xorg.conf_puzzle /etc/X11/xorg.conf
there's still no diff.
I guess it would be possible to optimize it, but for now I'll keep it
this way, even if I guess it only will be fine for GNOME at the moment,
anyway, it's the DE I prefer now.
The problem still is, that I needed Suse to get information about the
settings and the xorg.conf for my old monitor, getting this xorg.conf
for my old monitor for 64 Studio 3.0-beta3 once also was a PITA (but it
was fine for GDM and every WM/ DE).
There should be something similar to Suse's "sax2 -r" for 64 Studio too,
or if possible something similar to Windows, were all settings are
available, without using any command ;). Btw. for Windows I used ATI's
Catalyst, while for Linux I can't use the proprietary driver and Catalyst.
My personal résumé is, that this is still an issue that needs attention
by the developers.
Cheers,
Ralf
