It is actually a buggy Vesa DDC module that gives garbage info to the server and makes him set up incorrect modelines and DPI settings - if the monitor doesn't support DDC (mine doesn't). It seems DDC module can't distinguish whether a monitor has DDC support or it hasn't. And "NoDDC" option in XF86Config doesn't work currently... -- Alexander Homepage: http://www.sensi.org/~ak/ _______________________________________________ Redhat-devel-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-devel-list
