This is not a security bug As roon, run 'ddcprobe' and paste the output to this report. Perhaps your monitor does not have an entry in our monitor database. Here is the output. The exect model is Samsung 191T+. Here is the link: http://www.samsungusa.com/cgi-bin/nabc/product/b2c_product_detail.jsp? eUser=&prod_id=NB19BSHBV Here is the spec from it: Horiz. Rate (Analog) 30-81 Horiz. Rate (Digital) 30-63 Vertical Rate 58-85 Bandwidth 135 MHz Again. The monitor works fine and is beeing detected durring installation when connected to VGA connector. DVI does not work. The auto detection when VGA connected says that Samsung monitor has been found. No specific model. I think this is a problem with generic nVidia driver and DVI. No matter what I do I can't get it working on DVI. I hope to be of any other help. [root@localhost root]# ddcprobe Videocard DDC probe results Description: NVidia Corporation NV20 (GeForce3) Board Memory (MB): 64 Monitor DDC probe results ID: SAM00bb Name: SyncMaster Horizontal Sync (kHZ): 30-81 Vertical Sync (HZ) : 56-75 Width (mm): 380 Height(mm): 300 One more thing. I just installed the latest nviddia drivers .4496 and DVI started to work Looks like there is a problem with the initial driver and DVI that comes with fedora 1. Also the monitor is not in your database that is another thing :) Let me know if I can help/test anything else Robert I have added your monitor to our database, so that should solve at least part of the problem. Because of the driver problem you are seeing with the open source drivers, I am changing the component of this bug report to XFree86 to see if mharris knows more about the DVI problem. The 'nv' driver does not support flatpanel displays in XFree86 4.3.0. There is "experimental" support only for DFPs, and it requires end user hand editing of the spec file in order to try to use it. It is not autodetectable and not supported, and known to not work with a lot of hardware - hence the experimental status. This will be officially supported in a future OS release, possibly Fedora Core 2. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 88360 *** Changed to 'CLOSED' state since 'RESOLVED' has been deprecated. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322) Description of problem: I have Samsung 191T+ monitor connected to Hercules GForce3 64Mb over DVI. Durring installation (Anaconda) can't find the monitor and when it is tryingto start X it just goes blank. If I specity resolution=1280x1024 X starts but all noisy. I tried also noprobe but that did not work. I have this same setup under Suse 9.0 and Suse installer worked just fine.
