[XFree86] nvidia and ut2003 - wrong refresh rates

2004-02-11 Thread LeVA
Hi!

I'm trying to run ut2003 under linux with an nvidia driver, but 
everytime I start the game it switches to 800x600 @ 56 Hz, altough my 
monitor does support 1024x768 @ 85 Hz, and 800x600 @ 100 Hz (which I 
can not set up under X, because it alway switches to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hz, but 
this doesn't matter now). So anyone else experiencing this strange 
refresh rate with nvidia driver while gaming? How could this be fixed?
In my console, when running ut2003, I also get these messages:

Xlib:  extension "XiG-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib:  extension "XiG-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD" missing on display ":0.0".
Xlib:  extension "XiG-SUNDRY-NONSTANDARD" missing on display ":0.0".

Hope that someone could help me with this.

Thanks!

Daniel

Please check out file:
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4
and edit monitor Vertical refresh line
Standard:
VertRefresh 59-87
After editing:
VertRefresh 84-87
which means only refresh betwin 84 in 87 Hz.
Unfortunately i do not know how to change refresh on fly, which
feature is supported by XFree86.

I had the same Problem with my NVidia until I entered Modlines for the 
Resolution/Frequency-Settings I wanted. 
I don't know why they don't ship these lines with XFree any more but here are 
the lines that worked with my card/monitor combination:

# 100 Hz Modelines
Modeline "640x480" 45.8  640  672  768  864   480  488  494  530 -HSync -VSync
Modeline "800x600" 69.65 800 864  928 1088   600  604  610  640 -HSync -VSync
Modeline "1024x768" 115.5 1024 1056 1248 1440 768  771  781  802 -HSync -VSync
Modeline "1152x864" 137.65 1152 1184 1312 1536 864 866  885  902 -HSync -VSync
Modeline "1280x1024" 181.75 1280 1312 1440 1696 1024 1031 1046 1072 -HSync 
-VSync

You'll probably have to tune them with xvidtune.

Hope this helps

   The app is doing this.  It requests modes advertised through the
xf86VidMode extension but picks the first in the list without regards
to refresh rate.  The only way to prevent it from doing that is to
change your monitor's VertRefresh in the XF86Config file to exclude 
low refresh modes so that XFree86 doesn't advertise them.

   That is a extension offered by a commercial X server.  XFree86
does not support it.  XFree86 has its own extensions.
