Hi,
From dmesg, the graphics card in my Sun blade100 is:
machfb0 at pci0 dev 19 function 0 ATI Rage XL rev 0x27
machfb0: ATY,RageXL, 1280x1024
which is connected via DVI cable to a Sun monitor #365-1429. This monitor
supports 1280x1...@60hz. However starting X without a config file only run it
at 800x600. These line appears relevant in the Xorg log file:
(II) MACH64(0): default monitor: Using default hsync range of 31.50-37.90
kHz
(II) MACH64(0): default monitor: Using default vrefresh range of 50.00-70.00
Hz
...
(II) MACH64(0): Not using default mode 1280x1024 (hsync out of range)
I thought that one of the big advantages of DVI was that the card could query
the monitor to discover the supported modes automatically ? Is there any
commands I can use to enable such probing ? or do I can to create an entire
cfg file to manually enable a higher resolution ? Is there any way to
automatically generate a basic config file to subsequently edit ?
thanks,
/Pete
