RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
it supports VGA&DP on the planar,there is no 1600x1200 resolution available when connecting the DP port.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
How reproducible:
connect the DP of the planar, there is only
Steps to Reproduce:
1: Install RHEL 6.0 64bit with OB DP (Dell 2408 or HP LP2475w)
2: Start X window
3: System-->Preferences-->Display-->Resolution
4: There are ONLY 4 resolutions.(640x480/800x600/1024x768/1280x1024)
5: Change to D-sub,the max resolution is 1600x1200
Actual results:
when connecting to the DP port,there is no 1600x1200 resolution available in the list.

This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unfortunately unable to
address this request at this time. Red Hat invites you to
ask your support representative to propose this request, if
appropriate and relevant, in the next release of Red Hat
Enterprise Linux. If you would like it considered as an
exception in the current release, please ask your support
representative.
This is expected. DP->VGA converters typically only have 2 lanes wired, and thus have a maximum pixel clock of 144MHz for 8bpc, which is too low for any common 1600x1200 mode.
This is fixable by dithering to 6bpc, and while a patch to achieve this has been posted upstream it is not yet merged.
Moving to 6.3 radar.
