Hello!
I've updated from KDE 4.4 to KDE 4.8.4, and now I can't set the screen's
resolution any longer. There's only one choice: 1920*1440. With this, the
screen flickers, especially when the background is bright. In addition, the
font in the menu bars is so small, I can hardly read it.
"xrandr -q" yealds:
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 1920 x 1440, current 1920 x 1440, maximum 1920 x 1440
default connected 1920x1440+0+0 0mm x 0mm
1920x1440 0.0*
In KDE 4.4 I was able to set the screen's resolution.
A related problem is, that the gamma value of the screen can't be set any
longer. In KDE 4.4, I've set it in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
-------------------------------------------
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
Driver "kbd"
Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
Option "XkbLayout" "de"
Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
EndSection
Section "InputDevice"
Identifier "Configured Mouse"
Driver "mouse"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Configured Video Device"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Configured Monitor"
Gamma 2.15
# Größe des Bildschirms in Millimetern
DisplaySize 360 270
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Monitor "Configured Monitor"
EndSection
-------------------------------------------
This no longer works. In the system settings (Systemeinstellungen) I haven't
found a control to set the gamma value.
Thanks for your help,
Volker
