Public bug reported:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/822163/change-refresh-rate-to-144hz-in-
ubuntu-16-04-configure-crtc-0-failed-intel
I have a new **Asus F556U** laptop and an **Asus VG248QE** monitor that
I cannot get into 144Hz mode. It is stuck in 60Hz. This is causing awful
eye strain and I am willing to pay/bounty whomever gets me a fix.
1.Initial `xrandr`:
$ xrandr -q
Screen 0: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
eDP1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
1920x1080 60.05 + 59.93
1680x1050 59.95 59.88
1600x1024 60.17
1400x1050 59.98
1600x900 60.00
1280x1024 60.02
1440x900 59.89
1280x960 60.00
1368x768 60.00
1360x768 59.80 59.96
1152x864 60.00
1280x720 60.00
1024x768 60.00
1024x576 60.00
960x540 60.00
800x600 60.32 56.25
864x486 60.00
640x480 59.94
720x405 60.00
640x360 60.00
DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI2 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y
axis) 531mm x 299mm
1920x1080 60.00*+ 50.00 59.94 59.99
1920x1080i 60.00 50.00 59.94
1680x1050 59.88
1280x1024 75.02 60.02
1440x900 59.90
1280x960 60.00
1366x768 59.79
1280x800 59.91
1152x864 75.00
1280x720 60.00 50.00 59.94
1024x768 75.08 70.07 60.00
832x624 74.55
800x600 72.19 75.00 60.32 56.25
720x576 50.00
720x480 60.00 59.94
640x480 75.00 66.67 60.00 59.94
720x400 70.08
VIRTUAL1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
So *HDMI2* is my monitor.
2.Get the modeline:
$ cvt 1920 1080 144
# 1920x1080 143.88 Hz (CVT) hsync: 169.35 kHz; pclk: 452.50 MHz
Modeline "1920x1080_144.00" 452.50 1920 2088 2296 2672 1080 1083 1088
1177 -hsync +vsync
3.Create the new mode:
$ xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_144.00" 452.50 1920 2088 2296 2672
1080 1083 1088 1177 -hsync +vsync
4.*Add* the new mode:
$ xrandr --verbose --addmode HDMI2 "1920x1080_144.00"
All is well up to this point... and then:
5.Output the new mode:
$ xrandr --output HDMI2 --mode "1920x1080_144.00"
xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed
The screen shuts off and back on after I hit enter, and then the **xrandr:
Configure crtc 0 failed** error comes up.
At that time, this is what gets dumped to `Xorg.0.log`:
==> Xorg.0.log <==
[700593.713] (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1920x1080@143.9 on HDMI2 using
pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none
[700593.720] (EE) intel(0): failed to set mode: Invalid argument [22]
[700593.755] (II) intel(0): switch to mode 1920x1080@60.0 on HDMI2 using
pipe 0, position (0, 0), rotation normal, reflection none
I have also tried `xrandr --output HDMI2 --mode "1920x1080_144.00" --crtc 1`
and `xrandr --output HDMI2 --mode "1920x1080_144.00" --crtc 2` and those CRTCs
fail as well.
>From `lspci`, I have an Intel Integrated Graphics Controller
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Sky Lake
Integrated Graphics (rev 07)
Not sure if it matters, but I'm running Ubuntu Classic (Metacity window
manager). I already have the `xserver-xorg-video-intel` package installed.
I have *not* messed with any `Xorg.conf` files on this machine. Maybe that is
next?
This monitor *has* worked with an older NVidia graphics controller, so if I
have to get a USB one, I'd be willing to do that if nothing else works.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
