Attached Xorg.0.log and xorg.conf(created with
/usr/X11/bin/xorgconfig) and portion of display
dialogue is
also pasted.
after the xorg.conf is created, post reboot, Xserver
is
not started.
I do see options to select horizontal sync and
vertical
sync range but not the resolution. I want to set
resolution to 1280x800, do I need to change manully
xorg.conf(if it works?).
mouse I have selected auto detect, keyboard generic
101key pc/US english.

You must indicate the horizontal sync range of your
monitor. You can either
select one of the predefined ranges below that
correspond to industry-
standard monitor types, or give a specific range.
It is VERY IMPORTANT that you do not specify a monitor
type with a horizontal
sync range that is beyond the capabilities of your
monitor. If in doubt,
choose a conservative setting.
hsync in kHz; monitor type with characteristic
modes
1 31.5; Standard VGA, 640x480 @ 60 Hz
2 31.5 - 35.1; Super VGA, 800x600 @ 56 Hz
3 31.5, 35.5; 8514 Compatible, 1024x768 @ 87 Hz
interlaced (no 800x600)
4 31.5, 35.15, 35.5; Super VGA, 1024x768 @ 87 Hz
interlaced, 800x600 @ 56 Hz
5 31.5 - 37.9; Extended Super VGA, 800x600 @ 60 Hz,
640x480 @ 72 Hz
6 31.5 - 48.5; Non-Interlaced SVGA, 1024x768 @ 60
Hz, 800x600 @ 72 Hz
7 31.5 - 57.0; High Frequency SVGA, 1024x768 @ 70 Hz
8 31.5 - 64.3; Monitor that can do 1280x1024 @ 60 Hz
9 31.5 - 79.0; Monitor that can do 1280x1024 @ 74 Hz
10 31.5 - 82.0; Monitor that can do 1280x1024 @ 76 Hz
11 Enter your own horizontal sync range
Enter your choice (1-11): 7
You must indicate the vertical sync range of your
monitor. You can either
select one of the predefined ranges below that
correspond to industry-
standard monitor types, or give a specific range. For
interlaced modes,
the number that counts is the high one (e.g. 87 Hz
rather than 43 Hz).
1 50-70
2 50-90
3 50-100
4 40-150
5 Enter your own vertical sync range
Enter your choice: 1
You must now enter a few identification/description
strings, namely an
identifier, a vendor name, and a model name. Just
pressing enter will fill
in default names.
The strings are free-form, spaces are allowed.
Enter an identifier for your monitor definition:
Now we must configure video card specific settings. At
this point you can
choose to make a selection out of a database of video
card definitions.
Because there can be variation in Ramdacs and clock
generators even
between cards of the same model, it is not sensible to
blindly copy
the settings (e.g. a Device section). For this reason,
after you make a
selection, you will still be asked about the
components of the card, with
the settings from the chosen database entry presented
as a strong hint.
The database entries include information about the
chipset, what driver to
run, the Ramdac and ClockChip, and comments that will
be included in the
Device section. However, a lot of definitions only
hint about what driver
to run (based on the chipset the card uses) and are
untested.
If you can't find your card in the database, there's
nothing to worry about.
You should only choose a database entry that is
exactly the same model as
your card; choosing one that looks similar is just a
bad idea (e.g. a
GemStone Snail 64 may be as different from a GemStone
Snail 64+ in terms of
hardware as can be).
Do you want to look at the card database?
Now you must give information about your video card.
This will be used for
the "Device" section of your video card in xorg.conf.
It is probably a good idea to use the same approximate
amount as that detected
by the server you intend to use. If you encounter
problems that are due to the
used server not supporting the amount memory you have,
specify the maximum
amount supported by the server.
How much video memory do you have on your video card:
1 256K
2 512K
3 1024K
4 2048K
5 4096K
6 8192K
7 16384K
8 32768K
9 65536K
10 131072K
11 262144K
12 Other
Enter your choice: 6
You must now enter a few identification/description
strings, namely an
identifier, a vendor name, and a model name. Just
pressing enter will fill
in default names (possibly from a card definition).
The strings are free-form, spaces are allowed.
Enter an identifier for your video card definition:
Please specify which color depth you want to use by
default:
1 1 bit (monochrome)
2 4 bits (16 colors)
3 8 bits (256 colors)
4 16 bits (65536 colors)
5 24 bits (16 million colors)
Enter a number to choose the default depth.

I am going to write the xorg.conf file now. Make sure
you don't accidently
overwrite a previously configured one.
Shall I write it to /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
Do you want it written to the current directory as
'xorg.conf'?
Please give a filename to write to: /etc/X11/xorg.conf
File has been written. Take a look at it before
starting an X server. Note that
the xorg.conf file must be in one of the directories
searched by the server
(e.g. /etc/X11) in order to be used. Within the server
press
ctrl, alt and '+' simultaneously to cycle video
resolutions. Pressing ctrl,
alt and backspace simultaneously immediately exits the
server (use if
the monitor doesn't sync for a particular mode).
For further configuration, refer to the xorg.conf(4)
manual page.
Thanks,
Venu.
