I've been looking around and I haven't seen anywhere that this is
documented: if I toggle the modeset flag the output of xrandr changes
radically (this is on fully updated F11 rawhide with Intel graphics):
- Outputs have different names:
- modeset: VGA1, LVDS1, DVI{1,2}, TV1
- nomodeset: VGA, LVDS, HDMI-{1,2}, TV
- Maximum virtual size is different:
- modeset: 8192 x 8192
- nomodeset: 1920 x 1920 (nb: native resolution is 1920x1200)
- Available resolutions and refresh rates are different, with many
more available with nomodeset
- e.g., LVDS has only 1920x1200 with modesetting, but six further
resolutions with nomodeset
Is this a known "feature"? Is it documented anywhere?
Thanks,
MEF
