As Peter said $ xrandr -q will show all modes detected and the current configuration. Then use the normal xrandr commands to select your desired resolution. Also can you attach full dmesg with drm.debug=0xe again, the one you've attached is missing a few things at the top. Maybe your kernel dmesg buffer is too small. You can adjust that size with log_buf_len=2M or so on the kernel cmdline. > > Also, can you describe "oddly placed" more precisely (maybe with a pic)? > > attached the two pictures of LightDM, with and without nomodeset with > kernel keithp plus drm-intel-fixes (without Peter's patch for > interlaced). This looks like overscan/scaling-comp gone wrong (but I haven't ever seen that in practice, so not much clue). Rodrigo is working on patches to add support for overscan comp, maybe he has a few patches for you to try. -Daniel -- Daniel Vetter Mail: daniel at ffwll.ch Mobile: +41 (0)79 365 57 48
