[Bug 293739] Re: Input Signal Out of Range(Specific to Full-Screen Apps powered by PYTHON)

2009-10-27 Thread gulik.
I've experienced this problem too.

Programs using pylib work fine in a window, but in full-screen mode they
lock up the screen with an "signal input out of range" (sic!). The mode
they're being set to is 800x600. The screen becomes useless - the only
way I can get the display back is by switching to tty1 and killing the X
server.

mike...@kaz:~$ X -version

X.Org X Server 1.6.0
Release Date: 2009-2-25
X Protocol Version 11, Revision 0
Build Operating System: Linux 2.6.24-23-server i686 Ubuntu
Current Operating System: Linux kaz 2.6.28-15-generic #52-Ubuntu SMP Wed Sep 9 
10:49:34 UTC 2009 i686
Build Date: 09 April 2009  02:10:02AM
xorg-server 2:1.6.0-0ubuntu14 (bui...@rothera.buildd) 
Before reporting problems, check http://wiki.x.org
to make sure that you have the latest version.

libsdl1.2debian-alsa is installed. It appears to be a libsdl problem.

One fix is to hack each pygame application. Find the line saying
"pygame.display.set_mode((800, 600), FULLSCREEN) and remove the
FULLSCREEN bit. This prevents any accidental lock-ups.

Ideally, the X server would refuse to use a setting that doesn't work
with the monitor, but the xorg.conf file is now pretty sparse.

** Summary changed:

- Input Signal Out of Range(Specific to Full-Screen Apps)
+ Input Signal Out of Range(Specific to Full-Screen Apps powered by PYTHON)

** Description changed:

- #1 Um.. how do I describe this.. let me see OMG IT WONT WORK HELP HELP
- HELP!!!
+ Full screen python games and programs rendering using 3d graphics on a
+ LCD connected via VGA(giving incorrect EDID data) results in
+ configuration parameters exceeding device capacity.
  
- #2 Cause : LCD monitor running via VGA cable does not provide correct
- EDID info.
- 
- #3 Result:  Device refresh rates from full-screen programs like FretsOnFire 
can exceed 
- Monitor refresh rates causing a "INPUT SIGNAL OUT OF RANGE" error.
- 
- #4 Exceptions to issue : Gnome loads fine. Compiz works fine. Non Full-Screen 
programs work fine.
- 
--
- This issue is not card specific. This issue is not distro specific. This 
issue is not xorg specific.
- Numerous attempts to configure xorg have only resulted in FAIL.
- These include manual setting of parameters including MODELINE and scripted 
configurations.
- Do not attempt to SAGE this issue on the grounds of driver or xorg settings.
- #4 is my defense.
- 
- 
-
-  The only plausible fix I can come up with, in the event nobody else proposes 
one, is a script that 
- makes all programs comply with xorg set refresh rates and resolutions. This 
may be undesirable
- as some programs use custom resolutions, and this would cause graphical 
glitches, but this
- would establish a STANDARD for entire systems at once. The one major benefit 
I see from this: 
- Perceived as well as literal increased system stability.
+ STEPS REQUIRED TO REPRODUCE:
+ Obtain an lcd monitor utilizing a VGA input port, or obtain a DVI-VGA 
crossover cable.
+ Connect the Monitor to your video card.
+ Open Frets On Fire and set parameters to Full-Screen : On.
+ Enjoy your error message.

This bug is to remain open until solved, as this effects all ubuntu 
installations and varients. Other programs currently affected include lbreakout 
and etracer. The likelyness of this being python specific is extremely high.
I will add pygame to the list of effected programs.

It might be related to the pygame library. What other programs are
affected by the problem?

2008-11-05 Thread Josh K
The answer is yes. This issue is program specific. Disabling
compiz(which I did) does not effect the full-screen program, as it
attempts to directly modify monitor parameters. Also, as for the example
program, I was able to check some sites and get a fretsonfire.ini file
with a [video] section and place the file in
terlmann/.fretsonfire/fretsonfire.ini   . With full-screen disabled ,
the program works fine. This problem effected multiple programs though.

Can you reproduce the problem (with full screen applications) if you
disable Compiz?
