log from FC7, where X zoom keys and xvidtune work correctly
Here's a log from Fedora 7. Everything works correctly here. This was
xorg-x11-drv-ati 6.6.3-4.fc7 .

xorg.conf which worked on FC7
This xorg.conf worked fine on Fedora 7. It is also the first xorg.conf which I
tried on Fedora 8. It does not work on FC8. In addition to zoom keys not
working, it produced a default max screen size of 2048x1200, whereas FC7
allowed 2048x1536.

latest FC8 xorg.conf
Modified the previous xorg.conf to look like this, to try to resolve problems.
This fixed the part where it thought 2048x1200 was largest possible size. Does
not have any effect on the zoom problem, however.

FC8 log, after trying zoom keys, xvidtune, and finally xrandr
xrandr --output DVI-0 --mode 1280x1024
worked. Neither zoom keys nor xvidtune worked.
Hardware: IBM 6652-U3N 21" CRT ATI Radeon 9200SE Athlon/XP 2600+ VIA KT400 Kernel 2.6.23.1-49.fc8 GNOME 2.20.1 and KDE 3.5.8 (fails on both) I have the same problem with fedora 7. Did it break on fedora 7 lately?
* Alt-Ctrl-+/0 does not work.
* xvidtune -next does not work.
* xrandr -s 640x480 does work.
I have needed stuff in /etc/X11/xorg.conf :
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection
This is troublesome since some games use xvidtune method rather than xrandr method.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 8 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 8. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '8'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 8's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 8 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 8 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-01-07. Fedora 8 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. |
