This is a known problem. Could you try to workaround this with 855resolution? The package should be installed by default. Consult /usr/share/doc/packages/855resolution/README.txt for configuration details. IIRC with 10.1 (Alpha2) SaX2 will take care of this. I don't think a hack like 855resolution should be installed by default. Perhaps a Wiki entry would help here. Stefan, I though Alan had 855resolution included in his latest driver, or is this one not yet released upstream? Hmm ... I thought that you all (Marcus, Seife, Matthias) decided to configure this by default for 10.1 and this had been already done?!? It does not look like Alan ahs already included the functionality of 855resolution for 915G. (In reply to comment #3) > Hmm ... I thought that you all (Marcus, Seife, Matthias) decided to configure > this by default for 10.1 and this had been already done?!? I certainly do not know anything about that :-P Still waiting for feedback by the reporter. Sorry guys, I didn't get back to you earlier. In fact I fixed it just yesterday. I promise to write more detailed report when I get home with attached config and log files for you consideration. From the top of my head... Here is what I did. I have changed one of VBIOS modes into 1680x1050 with 915resolution which I belive is some later mutation of 855resolution. I choose 915 one just because I actually have 915G chipset, but 855resolution worked fine two though. This thing along didn't help so I had to specify video timing explicitly. I don't realy remember this combination right now. Funny thing is that couldn't make it set 60Hz. I spend 2 hours playing with those numbers but couldn't make it work. It either switched to 1900x1600 or to 1200x1024 or 1680x1050 but on 56Hz. In that mode monitor's auto adjastment made picture compressed from the sides. By adjusting of clock, phase, and position in monitor's menu I finally have atcheved acceptable picture. I can't say for sure but it looks like "blurry stripe" is still visible.

Ok. Thanks. > Comments #1-4:
This needs to be discussed!
It has been discussed meanwhile. We'll do this by default for 10.1. Closing as fixed. Feel free. IMHO this is no longer critical. Of course it would be better to see a solution inside the driver ... setting to NORMAL. Setting to enhancement I have this same issue using SLED and a Thinkpad T60 - the native resolution of 1400 x 1050 cannot be set, and despite SaX2 showing this resolution, the 'text screen' and eventual resolution is set to 1280 x 1024. The chipset is intel 945GM This issue will be resolved with the new developped Intel driver (modesetting branch in git, still experimental). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 215673 *** |
