Hello.

I've configured my X to use a 1600x1200 resolution (or so I thought...).
It used to work until the last X.Org upgrade; after that it *usually* worked: very rarely it would start at 2048x1536, but a couple of Ctrl-Alt-Backspace was normally enough.

Since a couple of day, it always start at 2048x1536, and there is no way to get 1600x1200 unless I login and change resolution afterwards (which is however enought to mess all my KDE fonts up).

It sounds like the EDID information isn't always working. Check your video cable to see if a pin is bent over, or try a different one.

I've got this in my xorg.conf:

Section "Screen"
        Identifier "SyncMaster"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "SyncMaster"
        SubSection "Display"
                Viewport   0 0
                Depth     32
               Modes      "1600x1200"
        EndSubSection
EndSection

32 is not a valid depth, according to xorg.conf(5).

Of course I can provide full xorg.conf and Xorg.0.log, but they are quite long...

xorg.conf is usually not a problem. Log files can be posted on the web somewhere, like pastebin.com.

Card is a Radeon HD 4200.

What is the monitor?
