Well, it's not that simple =). There are three things to consider: - Framebuffer in the sdram. It has xres and yres parameters. - Overlay, and it's input size (from fb) and output sizes (must fit into the display). - Display, which has certain size depending on video mode. Only VID overlays can have different input and output sizes, GFX overlay does not support scaling. In the script above you don't change the fb at all. You can do that with when the overlay is disabled, for example: fbset -xres 1366 -vxres 1366 -yres 768 -vyres 768 But that only works if there's enough memory allocated for the framebuffer, but that is the case for you if the fb was bigger initially. Otherwise you need to set the new size with /sys/class/graphics/fb0/size before resizing the fb. And, of course, the framebuffer cannot be in use at that time by, for example, X. Yes, it's complex! I hope omapdrm will make all things simple, and we can forget omapfb. In hindsight, I should've designed omapfb to be much simpler, and only use gfx overlay. Making it support all overlays is a never ending source for problems and complexity. > FYI, I'm also seeing the DVI monitor blank out on it's own for > about a second or so on regular basis every 10 minutes or so. > No idea what's causing that, maybe it's a reminder to take > a short break :) Well that's something different. I've recently done some testing with using DSI PLL for generating pixel clock, and I've seen unstabilities with that. But perhaps there's something else wrong also, even when using the PRCM for pix clock as in your case. Does your monitor ever report something like bad signal or such? Tomi
