Hi Folks,
I'm having a bit of a problem with setting X to use a higher
resolution. Under Winblows, this monitor, a Viewsonic Graphics Series
G810, can run 1280x1024 just fine. But I can't get it to do that under
X. I can run system-config-display and set it to 1280x1024 but then
when I restart X, the screen is all screwed up. I get horizontal lines
all over it and you can barely read anything.
At first I thought maybe it was my refresh rates, but after
verifying with Viewsonic, they match and are what they should be:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
VendorName "Monitor Vendor"
ModelName "ViewSonic G810"
HorizSync 30.0 - 97.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 180.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection
As for the video card, it's a:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "trident"
VendorName "Videocard vendor"
BoardName "Trident Blade3D (generic)"
Option "NoAccel"
EndSection
What else should I be looking at to figure out this problem? I'd
like to get the monitor running with a higher resolution, at least,
higher than 1024x768.
Thanks.
