Re: Configuring 1440 x 900 LCD Monitor

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



I've got an ACER AL1916W and suffered the same issues...

I can't recall how I got the orginal config - but I remember useing an
x utility to generate a config based on my screen size and refresh
rate...

Anyway: I keep emailing myself the xorg.conf so as not to lose it!

I'm attaching it here for you - hope it helps.

I use an old ATI - Rage card - but just change your drive to 'intel'
and it will work
(I've done the same w/ my widescreen on a Dell Dimension at work. (FC4)

I run FC6 here.

Greetings

I am attempting to configure my ViewSonic VX1935WM widescreen monitor.
Unfortunately this model is not listed in the Display Settings.  I have
attempted the generic 1440 x 900 LCD monitor listed.  This does not
provide the required resolution. I have edited /etc/X11/xorg.conf and
added my monitor, resolution, refresh rate, and screen size.  The
problem is that even when I have added this to xorg.conf the new
resolution does not show in Display Settings and I cannot change my
display to the new resolution.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Thank you
