modelines and xvidtune

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

 



Hello all,

I'm running OpenBSD 3.1-stable with XFree86 4.2.

I have a Matrox Millenium G400 with 32MB and a ViewSonic VA550 15" LCD.

I used XF86cfg to generate the basic XF86Config.new file.
Startx works, but generates some fuzziness. I used xvidtune to adjust the
screen and printed out the modeline:

"1024x768"	65.00	1024 1048 1184 1344		768 771 777 806
-hsync -vsync

I read the man page for XF86Config, and added the modeline above to
/root/XF86Config.new

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier	"Monitor0"
	VendorName	"Monitor Vendor"
	ModelName		"Monitor Model"
ModeLine "1024x768" 65.00 1024 1048 1184 1344 768 771 777 806 -hsync -vsync

I exited FVVM and restarted X, but had the same wobbly screen.

I looked through the archives, reading this message:

http://xfree86.org/pipermail/newbie/2002-September/017300.html

But I haven't figured out what I'm doing wrong.

My questions:

1) How do I set the proper modeline? Or should I set something else?
2) How do I set the default resolution (my laptop runs XF86 fine, but at
8-bit resolution)

Thanks,
