Dear All , To the Intel DG965WH main board http://www.intel.com/support/motherboards/desktop/dg965wh/
I attached a Samsung Syncmaster 2233SN 1920 x 1080 21.5 inches LCD analog monitor http://www.samsung.com/uk/consumer/detail/detail.do?group=itbusiness&type=monitors&subtype=lcd&model_cd=LS22CMYKF/EN OS : FreeBSD 7.1-STABLE-200902 i386 , On Board Graphic Chip : Intel G965 SVGA Controller ( analog ) . Previous Monitor : Philips 109B6 CRT with 1600 x 1200 resolution . On start-up , when Gnome started ( or before its start ) monitor change detected and a little later four sides of the monitor become black bands having approximately 6 cm width . Middle rectangle filled full of black and grey solid character rectangles like a checker board . The PC locked and did not accept Ctrl-Alt-Backspace key . By resetting it with reset button , it booted again with display of Gnome screen correctly in 1920 x 1080 screen display and mode settings . It worked approximately more than a few minutes without responding to mouse clicks promptly . Then started to normal working . Subsequent re-boots again worked very well . Up to now , mostly I did not mention comparisons of my experiences with other operating systems with the fear that they may be found unnecessary . Now I am thinking that some comparisons may be very useful . These are open source systems and cross references may be found in the following links ( perhaps among others ) : http://fxr.watson.org/ http://lxr.sourceforge.net/ http://lxr.linux.no/ In that way , it is possible to have other sources to study and compare . I tried the above monitor with Kubuntu 9.04 ( 64 bits ) . On start , Kubuntu 9.04 detected monitor change and after Auto adjust progress bar completion ( display of monitor hardware ) , it instantly set the display sizes and monitor mode correctly to 1920 X 1080 without any display distortion . Fedora 10 ( 64 bits ) Linux , CentOS 5.3 ( 64 bits ) Linux , and OpenSolaris 2008.11 Unix , all detected monitor change , but , three of them set the sreen display and monitor mode sizes to 1680 x 1050 . In their Screen Resolution setting menu . largest available size was 1680 x 1050 and other smaller sizes . Presing Auto button of the monitor did not change the display structure . Mandriva Linux Free 2008.0 and 2009.1 ( 32 bits ) . both detected monitor change . Set the display size to 1920 X 1080 but set the monitor mode to 1680 X 1050 losing both sides of the screen ( showing only the middle portion ) . Pressing Auto button of the monitor caused a momentarily full of screen show but changed to the above state . Thank you very much .
