Send me the a copy of your XF86Config file, please. Created attachment 136 [details]
The bad XF86Config file
We updated the entire monitor database just after releasing the public beta, so this issue will be resolved in the final release. The MAG DJ717 monitor will now come up with a horizontal sync rate of 30-86 and a vertical of 50-160. This is not fixed in the 6.1 98 snapshot released Saturday. I could choose between a lot of resolution in the installer, but only 640x480 was available when booting. I'll attach the produced XF86Config file to this bug Created attachment 142 [details]
The new bad XF86Config file
I am not able to replicate this in the lab. I choose the Mag monitor, test out a couple of resolutions, then finish the installation. On reboot, I have the correct sync rates for the monitor. When you select the Mag monitor in the monitor selection screen, are the correct sync rates being displayed at the bottom of the screen (in the boxes)? I don't see any frequencies (or ranges) at all when selecting the DDC-probed monitor. I can also add that the same thing happens on another computer, a LG Studioworks 55i on a completely different computer (Mach64, the other one has a Riva TNT board). I understand now. Will have to try to get a DDC-probed monitor to come up without frequency settings. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 8615 *** |
