Description Matt Darcy 2007-01-04 19:25:27 UTC
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:

Comment 1 Matěj Cepl 2007-01-05 12:13:44 UTC
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.

Comment 2 Matěj Cepl 2007-07-04 00:05:20 UTC
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.

Comment 3 Matt Darcy 2007-07-04 09:05:16 UTC
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.

Comment 4 Matěj Cepl 2007-07-04 13:58:39 UTC
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.

Comment 5 Matěj Cepl 2007-08-11 20:26:46 UTC
No information requested was provided, so I close this bug as INSUFFICIENT_DATA.
Reporter, if you could, please, reopen with additional information.
