[Bug 282096] [NEW] 1920x1200 resolution not available, nvidia restricted 173 on intrepid

2008-10-12 Thread darkknight
Public bug reported:

I just installed Intrepid Beta. Did some research on this, but couldn't
find working solution.

I'm using a Samsung SyncMaster 245B connected via DVI to my NVidia
FX5200, driver is NVidia 173 (restricted). Other driver versions and
open driver cause same effect. The monitor's native solution (1920x1200)
is not detected. This is not a hardware problem since "M$-OS" detects
and uses the monitor's resolutions fine.

Also tried hardy: same.

Thanks in advance.

Output of hwinfo --framebuffer attached.

Thanks for your help. But no change after restart. The monitor is
connected using DVI, I'm confused because of the refresh rate.

NVidia Settings Manager was already installed. I cannot select 1920x1200
there but only 1600x1200. Manually setting that resolution under
"advanced" ended in a horizontally scrollable screen.

Whow, don't know exactly what happend, but resolution is fine now.

Added some modelines found in nvnews.net's forum without knowing what
exactly they mean:

Option "ExactModeTimingsDVI" "TRUE"
Option "UseEDIDFreqs" "false"
Option "ModeValidation" "DFP-0: NoMaxPClkCheck, NoEdidMaxPClkCheck, 
AllowNon60HzDFPModes"

All in "Monitor" section of xorg.conf

I read that DVI is generally limited to 135Mhz on GeForce FX5200. Is
that true? In that case, why not provide a Checkbox in display settings
called "limited DVI" or so, providing the options above or only those
needed?
