xrand in KDM's Xsetup
I have two monitors 19' (on my left) 24' (on the right) Having configure in my xorg.conf a virtual area (3400,1900) i've managed to find the xrand commands to adjust the dual mode to my like. I tested the while logged in. But to automate the procedure i put them in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup : #! /bin/sh # Xsetup - run as root before the login dialog appears #xconsole -geometry 480x130-0-0 -notify -verbose -fn fixed -exitOnFail -file /dev/xconsole xrandr --output DFP2 --mode 1920x1200 xrandr --output CRT2 --mode 1360x768 xrandr --output CRT2 --left-of DFP2 xrandr --output CRT2 --pos 0x432 But after reboot (and whlle i get a hint by the position of the login screen - elevated in the 19' screen) that perhaps they xrand sequence was executed when i log in i get: $ xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3280 x 1200, maximum 3400 x 1200 DFP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DFP2 connected 1920x1200+1360+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 519mm x 324mm 1920x1200 60.0*+ 1920x1080 60.0 1600x1200 60.0 1680x1050 60.0 1400x1050 60.0 1280x1024 75.0 1440x900 75.0 59.9 1280x960 60.0 1280x800 60.0 1152x864 60.0 1280x768 60.0 1280x720 60.0 1024x768 75.0 70.1 60.0 800x60072.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x48075.0 72.8 67.0 59.9 DFP3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) CRT1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) CRT2 connected 1280x960+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 410mm x 230mm 1366x768 59.8 + 1280x1024 75.0 60.0 1280x960 75.0 60.0* 1368x768 75.0 75.0 1360x768 59.8 1280x768 75.0 60.0 1280x720 75.0 60.0 1024x768 75.0 70.1 60.0 800x60072.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x48075.0 72.8 67.0 59.9 Thus, i get resolution closed but not exactly what i wanted. and CRT2 left oF DFP2 BUT the position are not what i wanted. Is there is an explation why the same commands will not work from Xsetup ? alex. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Sorry i forgot to mention that i use Squeeze with KDE4 and the fglrx driver. My xorg.conf was created from aticonfig --initial and i only added the virtual screen size. xorg.conf - Section ServerLayout Identifier aticonfig Layout Screen 0 aticonfig-Screen[0]-0 0 0 EndSection Section Module EndSection Section Monitor Identifier aticonfig-Monitor[0]-0 Option VendorName ATI Proprietary Driver Option ModelName Generic Autodetecting Monitor Option DPMS true EndSection Section Device Identifier aticonfig-Device[0]-0 Driver fglrx BusID PCI:1:0:0 EndSection Section Screen Identifier aticonfig-Screen[0]-0 Device aticonfig-Device[0]-0 Monitoraticonfig-Monitor[0]-0 DefaultDepth 24 SubSection Display Viewport 0 0 Virtual 3400 1200 Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection alex. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: xrand in KDM's Xsetup
OK. i think i found the problem. Playing with krandrtray and it's conf file in ~/.kde/share/config/krandrrc i found that the right xrandr commands to achieve extended desktop with two different sized screen in debian squeeze with flgrx driver is to put in /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup: xrandr --output DFP2 --mode 1920x1200 --pos 1368x0 xrandr --output CRT2 --mode 1368x768 --pos 0x432 So it seems that my previous effort xrandr --output DFP2 --mode 1920x1200 xrandr --output CRT2 --mode 1360x768 xrandr --output CRT2 --left-of DFP2 xrandr --output CRT2 --pos 0x432 it had an error that i cant pin for the moment. alex -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

xsetup reconfiguration?
I am running a debian derivative. I would like to force a reconfiguration of the xserver, any ideas how? -ishwar -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

I could give you the commands that work for Debian, but depending on how different your distro is from pure Debian, you could end up screwing your system. You should really ask in your distro's forum/mailinglists, (if you can't find the answer on the web or in the docs).

Re: newbie-Xsetup
Try running the xf86configure script and answer the questions properly donot select the card from the database it is not there. Try to give the monitors vert and horizontal frequecy properly ( look in monitor manual ). and select svga server ( first install xserver-svga ) . regards *** Pankaj Jangid National Centre for Software Technology *** On Mon, 14 May 2001, Chris Parker wrote: Trying to set up X.

of Xservers and XSetup, of sabotage and kinks...
Hi All - Just downloaded 2.2 - verrry sweet ftp install! I've run into a small problem with getting/finding/installing the XServer, though, and was wondering if someone could help with this. I did grab the XFree 4.0 stuff, as XF86Setup was quite insistent that I did not have the required server for my Diamond Viper 770. Looked at the documentation for NVidia, and came out of the 2 hour doc-search no wiser than before. Again, was surprised to find setup telling me the required server didn't exist. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance - Alpha

The Diamond Viper 770 is based on the NVidia TNT2 chip. It's supported by the SVGA server in X 3.3.6. For 4.0.1, you can use the nv driver, or you can go to NVidia's website (http://www.nvidia.com) to download their accelerated server.
XSetup?
Ok, I hate xconfigurator. It did it's job but it's confusing as hell if you don't know everything about modelines and frequencies. When my box was redhat I had an XSetup which was considerably easier. I haven't found it yet. Anyone know what package this is in, or a different/better configurator for XF86? I have done a dist upgrade so I believe I'm running 3.3.6. Robert :wq! --- Robert L. Harris| Low quality in a product happens.

I have done a dist upgrade so I believe I'm running 3.3.6. There are two such utilities included with Debian. A graphical one called XF86Setup (in Debian package xf86setup) and a command-line utility call xf86config (in Debian package xserver-common). Give 'em a shot. Gary

Segfault with acceleratedX Xsetup
I've had similar problems in the past when I tried to upgrade to potato, but this time all I had was a base slink system. I have the termcap compatibility installed, so thats not causing it. This is a big problem for me, potato isn't work anything to me without X. And I'd rather not use xfree. -Aaron Solochek [EMAIL PROTECTED]
XSetup for MMII AGP
I've installed the Debian 2.0 system and went through the XF86Setup sequence to setup the X server. But when I run startx the system will not start the SVGA server (starts the VGA server). When I return to the XF86Setup program, my video card selection is nolonger shown and I have to set it up again. Is this a documented problem or do I have to do something else for the AGP settings.
