[Xpert]A Sun GDM-17E20 with a Matrox G400
Hello, I've acquired a Sun GDM-17E20 monitor from a friend. I have been told that it is possible to get this monitor working on a normal video card (in this case I have a Matrox G400). The two resolutions that the monitor supports are 1280X1024@76hz and 1152X900@76hz. I would like to get it working at 1280x1024@76Hz. I read that the second head of the G400 only will do 1280x1024 @ 75Hz, so I tried setting the monitor up on the primary head. I still was unable to make X do the 1280x1024@76Hz resolution, even with a modeline that was stuck in by mgapdesk. The modeline that it stuck in was: ModeLine 1280x1024@76Hz:1 136.8 1280 1296 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync But when X starts this modeline is rejected: (II) MGA(1): Not using mode 1280x1024@76Hz:1 (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan) Attached is my XF86Config-4 file.

[Xpert]Trident 9397 on an IBM Thinkpad
Hello all, I'm experiencing the distorted color problem on a TP770 with the Trident Cyberblade 9397 chipset. I've patched around the problem by using the suggestion made by Alan Hourihane to comment out the XvExtension in the trident_driver.c file, rebuilding the module, and substituting it for the original. It now works fine, but I'm willing to help out in tracking this bug down completely. -- Best regards, Mike Trettel mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Xpert mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://XFree86.Org/mailman/listinfo/xpert
[Xpert]VSync on ATI Radeon
