i just brought home new samsung 22" widescreen LCD. so far, i cannot get xorg to take anything other than standard CRT type resolutions, such as 1280x1024. i took at look at my Xorg.0.log, and saw this: (II) I810(0): 720x400@70Hz (II) I810(0): 640x480@60Hz (II) I810(0): 640x480@67Hz (II) I810(0): 640x480@72Hz (II) I810(0): 640x480@75Hz (II) I810(0): 800x600@56Hz (II) I810(0): 800x600@60Hz (II) I810(0): 800x600@72Hz (II) I810(0): 800x600@75Hz (II) I810(0): 832x624@75Hz (II) I810(0): 1024x768@60Hz (II) I810(0): 1024x768@70Hz (II) I810(0): 1024x768@75Hz (II) I810(0): 1280x1024@75Hz (II) I810(0): 1152x870@75Hz (II) I810(0): Manufacturer's mask: 0 (II) I810(0): Supported Future Video Modes: (II) I810(0): #0: hsize: 1680 vsize 1050 refresh: 60 vid: 179 (II) I810(0): #1: hsize: 1280 vsize 1024 refresh: 60 vid: 32897 (II) I810(0): #2: hsize: 1280 vsize 960 refresh: 60 vid: 16513 (II) I810(0): #3: hsize: 1152 vsize 864 refresh: 75 vid: 20337 (II) I810(0): Supported additional Video Mode: (II) I810(0): clock: 146.2 MHz Image Size: 474 x 296 mm (II) I810(0): h_active: 1680 h_sync: 1784 h_sync_end 1960 h_blank_end 2240 h_border: 0 (II) I810(0): v_active: 1050 v_sync: 1053 v_sync_end 1059 v_blanking: 1089 v_border: 0 (II) I810(0): Ranges: V min: 56 V max: 75 Hz, H min: 30 H max: 81 kHz, PixClock max 170 $ (II) I810(0): Monitor name: SyncMaster (II) I810(0): Serial No: H2QL700073 (II) I810(0): Will use BIOS call 0x5f05 to set refresh rates for CRTs. (--) I810(0): Maximum space available for video modes: 12288 kByte (II) I810(0): Using detected DDC timings (II) I810(0): HorizSync 30-81 (II) I810(0): VertRefresh 56-75 (WW) I810(0): config file vrefresh range 50-100Hz not within DDC vrefresh range 56-75Hz the first part, seems to be the normal video modes that i would expect to see from an i810 graphics card, but then right below that, i see video modes that would be preferred on my new monitor (1680x1050) in a section called "Supported Future Video Modes". does this mean there is a chance i might see proper resolutions for my new monitor, without upgrading to some other video card? my computer has a 915G: (II) I810(0): Integrated Graphics Chipset: Intel(R) 915G (--) I810(0): Chipset: "915G" if anyone who has a similar setup (with a wide screen monitor), i would appreciate if i could be pointed in the right direction. cheers, jonathan
