Description Bernd Paysan 2005-11-27 12:12:04 UTC
Minor error: There's a spelling problem in the vendor name, SaX2 lists this monitor under "DEL", not "DELL".

Major problem: The monitor is a WUXGA (1920x1200) monitor, and quite picky for what kind of modeline it wants. This one works (it's the one the monitor reports itself via DDC using the nv driver):

Modeline "1920x1200"  154.128 1920 1968 2000 2080  1200 1203 1209 1235 -hsync -vsync

This has already been fixed. The monitor was added to the CDB as follows:

#==============================================
# 2405 FPW
#----------------------------------------------
DELL:2405 FPW  {
 DDC=DELA010
 Option=DPMS
 Hsync=30-81
 Modeline="1920x1200" 154.00 1920 1976 2008 2080 1200 1203 1209 1235 +hsync +vsync
 Resolution=1920x1200
 Vsync=56-76
}
