X & ViewSonic VG710b using the 810 driver

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Immediately after installing FC4 from CD's, I launched a yum update from
within and X terminal session to download 400+meg of patches. At that
time, I believe I was using 1024x768 screen resolution I picked as the
default during install. Everything went well. 

After rebooting, X is giving me a problem. The display hardware reports
an error on the display - 
	Out of range - H Freq 70KHz - V Freq 87Hz

Below is the pertinent part of xorg.conf:
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "ViewSonic VG710b"
        DisplaySize  340        270
        HorizSync    30.0 - 82.0
        VertRefresh  50.0 - 85.0
        Option      "dpms"
EndSection

Section "Device"
        Identifier  "Videocard0"
        Driver      "i810"
        VendorName  "Videocard vendor"
        BoardName   "Intel 865"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Videocard0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        DefaultDepth     24
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     24
                Modes    "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     16
                Modes    "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

The login screen appears to be at 1280x1024, or at least 1024x768. The
1280x1024 is the native resolution for the display. 

Immediately after login, the hardware error appears on the display. I
have to Ctrl-Alt-+ to get to a lower resolution to see anything, and
then the virtual screen is larger than the physical screen so I have to
mouse around to the corners to see everything.

Clearly, the 87Hz is greater than the maximum stated in the xorg.conf
file. I can't seem to affect the V refresh no matter what I say in the
conf file.

I checked bugzilla looking for Intel 865 and found nothing of interest.

Any ideas?
