Last modified: 2008-08-02 19:40:34 EDT
Description of problem: When using the Intel 915 chipset with xorg 7.1.1 xorg i810 driver the correct optimum resolution is neither selected or able to be forced. Using the i810 driver to get a 1280x720 resolution with the sagem HD-L27 http://www.wedgwood-group.com/sagem_axium_hd-l27_27-inch_lcd_tv.htm it is impossible. Using development modesetting driver it is possible to get the correct resolution however rather than displaying the screen to scale the screen still runs at a high resolution that fails to fit within the confines of the screen and ends up scrolling around. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: evey time Steps to Reproduce: 1.install and update FC6 2.Use Intel 915 chip with i810 driver connected to LCD TV 3.start X and configure for 1280x720 resolution Actual results: screen fails to start, starts at a lower resolution or strange large resolution Expected results: Additional info: Logs are available in the URL in this bug along with configuration details. Additional information / tests can be run at your request.
I am sorry, but we cannot work on the basis of information somewhere on the web. Could you please, do it once more here. 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.
Actually, the URL mentioned below seems to be non-reponsive, so I cannot even attach the information myself. Could you please attach the files required in comment 1? Unless you respond in two weeks (the comment 1 is already half a year old) I will have to close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
The URL is dead as a lot of time has passed and only one or two guys seemed interested in progressing this forward/accepting new info on it. I am happy to regnerate and provide the logs for this bug if you feel it a worth while bug to be worked on / resolved.
If you can reproduce this bu on supported distro (which includes FC6 of course) then we are certainly very interested in any information on this bug. See the instructions in comment 1 about what we need. Thank you very much.
No information requested was provided, so I close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA. Reporter, if you could, please, reopen with additional information.
