HDMI 1.3 has enough bandwith. See here. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDMI But Dell crippled its HDMI input on the U3011 to 1920x1200. One can get around that issue by using a Dual Link HDMI to DVI adapter such as this one. http://us.startech.com/product/HDMIDVIFM-HDMI-Female-to-DVI-Male-Adapter The real issue is that either Nvidia or HP made the decision to drive the HDMI port on my HDX with a single link output instead of a dual link output. Its very interesting to read as I get more into this that even laptops with DisplayPorts aren't guaranteed to drive a monitor at 2560x1600. I thought that was the point of all these fancy high bandwidth interfaces ! -- users mailing list users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/users Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines
