RedHat 9 on a Dell Inspiron 5150

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

 



I have a Dell Inspiron 5150 that I have installed Redhat 9.0 on.  The
5150 is equipped with an NVIDIA GeForce FX 5900 graphics card.  I have
this system up and running and working using the vesa video drivers.
The vesa drivers work fine, but only give a max resolution of 800x600.
In order to obtain a much higher resolution I downloaded the NVIDIA
drivers and installed them according to the driver installation
instructions.  After installing them, I am able to get a good
resolution, but something seems to be wrong with the refresh rate.  I
was wondering if anyone has experienced the same problem and perhaps
could offer a possible fix.

Below is an excerpt from the "Monitor" section of my XF86config file.


Section "Monitor"

        Identifier   "Monitor0"
        VendorName   "Monitor Vendor"
        ModelName    "Dell 1400x1050 Laptop Display Panel"
        HorizSync    31.5 - 90.0
        VertRefresh  59.0 - 75.0
        Option      "dpms"
EndSection





Thanks in advance,


         ---Andy
