Description Fabrizio Magni 2005-08-18 09:14:18 UTC

Since the installation couldn't find out my monitor (Philips 107E) I obtained
wrong resolution and geometry.

SaX2 prompted me to change the geometry manually but no changes where showed
even after repeated tests (and the modification of my monitor definition).

I'm even hitting bug #99082.

sorry but what do you expect me to do here ? no logs no detailed description 
how to reproduce ? things are mixed up as well ....... 
 
1) your monitor wasn't detected. What does hwinfo --monitor tell you ? 
2) please call sax2 -r from runlevel 3 and send me the file 
 
     /var/log/SaX.log 
 
3) perform your changes and save the configuration, now send me the 
   written config file: 
 
     /etc/X11/xorg.conf 
 
Thanks

Comment 6 Marcus Schaefer 2005-08-18 10:15:57 UTC

no problem but you may imagine there are a lot of bugs ;) ok the  
first hwinfo showed me the monitor couldn't be detected which means 
no DDC information. The reason for this may be: 
 
 1) the cable if connected via BNC ? 
 2) the graphics card if the driver isn't able to read the information 
 
This is just for your information and some sort of bad luck ;)
