Public bug reported:
Video Card:
BFG Nvidia 7950 GT
Monitors:
Samsung 245BW 24" 1920x1200 (widescreen)
Samsung 204B 20" 1600x1200
The new Screens and Graphics preferences allows me to set up these
monitors to work perfectly on any resolution I've tried *except* when I
try to get the 245BW to the full resolution of 1920x1200. Then the
second monitor is still fine at 1600x1200 but the 1920x1200 drops down
to the next highest resolution - 1680x1050 I think. The size of the
"screen" seems to still be 1920x1200 but the monitor itself seems to be
set just below that since the screen scrolls when I go to an edge.
I tried running xrandr | grep '*' but that gave me this error:
Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0".
RandR extension missing
The settings in the xorg.conf for the 1920x1200 seem to be fine, since
they are the same in the single or dual monitor mode. And in single
monitor mode it has the correct resolution. It's only when the second
monitor info is added does the problem happen. (I checked the single
and dual monitor xorg.conf files with Kompare to make sure I wasn't
missing any settings).
This is my first bug report so let me know if you need more info.
