Bug#420712: xserver-xorg-video-intel does not show virtual screens
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 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

I can´t get the virtual screen size. I append xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log. Wolfgang -- Wolfgang Lauterbach Goethering 54 90547 Stein This is Linux country.

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

Bug#420712: xserver-xorg-video-intel does not show virtual screens
Wolfgang Lauterbach wrote: thank you for your answer. Well, I never before tried xrandr, and it did not help me now. I think it is a bug in the intel driver. I'll append my xorg.conf and two logfiles, one from the intel-driver, the otherone from the old i810-driver, and the output of xrandr. When you search the logfiles for Virtual, you can see, that the i810-driver states: (**) I810(0): Virtual size is 1824x1152 (pitch 2048) (**) I810(0): *Built-in mode 1024x768 ... and gives me a correct virtual screen, within which I can move around, How do you move around in there? while the intel-driver says: . .
