 Hi,

 Could you try the latest xserver-xorg-video-intel package (2:2.0.0-5
 currently in experimental) and report back whether it fixes your
 problem? Be sure you do not disable DDC as before since the driver needs
 it to autodetect modes.

 Thanks,
 Brice

Hi Brice,

unfortunatelly the experimental driver doesn´t work, too. I can´t get the 
virtual screen size. I append xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log.

Bug#420712: xserver-xorg-video-intel does not show virtual screens

2007-06-23 Thread Wolfgang Lauterbach
Am Samstag, 23. Juni 2007 schrieben Sie:

 Do you mean it does not start? Or just that your old virtual screen
 feature does not work? What resolution do you get at startup? Are you
 able to move/resize the display correctly with xrandr?

The driver starts correctly and I get a resolution of 1024x768, which is o.k 
for me. It is also the maximum resolution my monitor can handle. 
Unfortunatelly I am not used to xrandr and how to handle it. I never used it 
before.

The history of my favor for a virtual screen is, that I had a small 17'' 
CRT-monitor. With my first LINUX ditribution about ten years ago, a SuSE, I 
came along to get used to a virtual screen size bigger than my monitor could 
show, as described in the xorg.conf manpage:
Display Subsection - Virtual xdim ydim. 
This feature existed until xserver-xorg-video-i810_1.7.2-4.i386.deb.

 As explained earlier, the current Virtual line does not seem to have
 the exact meaning that you want. This Virtual line seems to be only
 meant to resize/place multiple heads in a same big screen with xrandr
 --pos/--above/--right-of/... From what I understood, you were moving
 inside your 'virtual' screen by hitting the corners with the mouse,
 right? I don't know how to do that today. But I also don't really see
 why you need this :)

Meanwhile it is not any more important for me to have this virtual screen 
feature of the hardware driver, because I was forced by the bug to use a 
fixed 1024x768 resolution and now use the virtual screens provided by my 
windowmanager, what is a good solution for me.

So we could finish this bugreport quoting the xorg.conf manpage: Some 
drivers/hardware combinations do not support virtual screens.  Refer to the 
appropriate driver-specific documentation for details.

Thank you for your efforts and help, Brice.

Bug#420712: xserver-xorg-video-intel does not show virtual screens

2007-04-24 Thread Wolfgang Lauterbach
Package: xserver-xorg-video-intel
Version: 2:2.0.0-1
Severity: normal

The new intel video driver doesn't any more show virtual screens, like the 
older i810-driver did. The driver seems to handle the desired virtual 
resolution 1824x1152 as a real resolution, which the screen doesn't support.
Already tried lower depth an different virtual modes. No chance.With old 
i810-driver all this works fine.
