My laptop (with intel-based graphics) has a matrix with a 1280x800 resolution. Both at home and at work I also use additional monitors, which both do not support such resolution - they both can display 1280x1024 pixels. If I want to achieve such situation, that I have the same screens on both displays, I vahe to use --scale option with xrandr and it works - but the picture on external screen is stretched and looks kind of weird (aspect is not preserved).
In the same time, when I start my system, after the i915 module is loaded (with KMS on), the external display is also turned on and displays exactly the same picture as the biult-in one. I just have a 224 pixel high margin on the bottom, but the aspect is correct. Is it possible to obtain a similar situation using xrandr (a certain combination of parameters or something)? I just want to use just a part of the 1280x1024 screen to display 1280x800 desktop with the same aspect ratio as on the built-in matrix. -- Łukasz Maśko GG: 2441498 _o) Lukasz.Masko(at)ipipan.waw.pl /\\ Registered Linux User #61028 _\_V Ubuntu: staroafrykańskie słowo oznaczające "Nie umiem zainstalować Debiana" _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list [email protected] http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
