Thanks for the bug report. We have reviewed the information you have provided above, and there is some additional information we require that will be helpful in our diagnosis of this issue. Please attach your X server config file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf) and X server log file (/var/log/Xorg.*.log) to the bug report as individual uncompressed file attachments using the bugzilla file attachment link below. Could you please also try to run without any /etc/X11/xorg.conf whatsoever and let X11 autodetect your display and video card? Attach to this bug /var/log/Xorg.0.log from this attempt as well, please. We will review this issue again once you've had a chance to attach this information. Thanks in advance.

Xorg.0.log
OK, I renamed /etc/X11/xorg.conf. The result is an image that exactly fills the whole screen (no more black bars on either side), but the resolution is now 1600x1200, which looks pretty awful on an LCD with native 1680x1050 resolution. The "Screen Resolution" dialog doesn't give me the option of switching to 1680x1050. I'll attach the new log. Created attachment 158533 [details]
Xorg.0.log (after removing xorg.conf)
This is the contents of /var/log/Xorg.0.log after renaming /etc/X11/xorg.conf,
logging out, and logging back in again.
I experimented with modelines, and found I could get an acceptable image with
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
HorizSync 31.5 - 90.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 60.1
Option "dpms"
Modeline "JBF-1680x1050" 146.25 1680 1754 1930 2300 1050 1053 1059 1
089 +hsync -vsync
EndSection
(The default mode otherwise selected is
"1680x1050" 146.25 1680 1784 1960 2240 1050 1053 1059 1089 -hsync +vsync
)
I know nothing about modelines, so this was found just by taking a mode out of
the log file and experimenting.
What needs to be done to get this working by default?
The log you posted seems to be from the i810 driver, rather than the intel driver. Can you try the latter and see if it works for you? If not, it may be having trouble getting EDID info from your monitor or the data is bogus... Sorry for the confusion; I did have problems with both drivers, but I've lost track of the details now. I'm now using FC8 (not rawhide), for x86_64 (not 32-bit any more), with the same machine (and same monitor), and the default setup (it seems to have chosen the "intel" driver) no longer has any problems. This is just with the default xorg.conf, no manual modeline setting. Thanks for letting us know. |
