<0> need a version number for video driver that is stable with svideo on linux
<0> anyone?
<1> hey I'm trying to get 1440x900 resolution to work, is this the right place?
<2> hi
<2> anyone know how i can set twinview up so that i'd have separate control on both monitor.. so i.e each monitor controls it's own x app?
<2> instead of having them being 1 large screen?
<3> in other words, when you maximize, it spans both monitors?
<3> because a Xinerama aware window manager will not do that
<2> Primer: actually i'd like to have it the other way around
<2> Primer: i'd like to have that feature off
<3> if it's doing that, then you 1) are using a crappy window manager, or 2) disabled the Xinerama info from twinview
<3> that's not a feature, dude
<3> spanning both monitors is not desirable
<3> pastebin your /var/log/Xorg.0.log
<2> Primer: okay let me get it up
<1> hey is this the right place to fix screen resolutions?
<3> phixnay: if you're in Linux, yes
<3> or FreeBSD or solaris too
<1> great ok
<1> it's Ubuntu Edgy
<1> 64
<1> I
<1> I'm trying to get 1440x900 but instead I get 1152x870
<3> you can try using a modeline. Visit http://sh.nu/nvidia and read the modeline howto. Some of that info is out of date though, you'll need to add the option to override the use of EDID/DDC
<2> http://pastebin.ca/311690
<3> th3man: log, not conf
<3> #
<3> Section "ServerFlags"
<3> #
<3> Option "Xinerama" "0"
<3> #
<3> EndSection
<3> that is your problem, though
<3> remove that
<3> and you should be ok
<3> the presence of that option enables it
<3> it's not boolean
<3> plus you want to enable twinview
<3> Option "TwinView" <-- add that to the Device section
<2> Primer: ooh sorry.. thanks i'll try that
<3> TwinView does not prevent you from having windows maximize to one monitor
<3> but using TwinView with external Xinerama enabled will break that
<1> primer: how do I find the specific refresh rates? Newegg only gives a range: Horizontal Refresh Rate Analog: 24-82 kHz
<1> Digital: 31-80 kHz Vertical Refresh Rate 50-75 Hz
<3> phixnay: is it an LCD?
<1> yes
<3> usually 60hz works
<3> since LCDs have no real refresh rate
<3> just use 60 for now
<1> ok. I'm using a d-sub cable because I don't have a dvi cable yet, is that a problem?
<3> nope
<1> ok
<1> so like this? gtf 1440 900 60
<3> there is a web interface to gtf, you know
<3> on that same page
<3> but yeah
<3> that's it
<1> kk let me see
<1> ah there it is
<1> # 1440x900 @ 60.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 55.92 kHz; pclk: 106.47 MHz Modeline "1440x900_60.00" 106.47 1440 1520 1672 1904 900 901 904 932 -HSync +Vsync
<1> where does this go?
<1> I mean what section of xorg.conf
<3> monitor
<3> read the howto
<1> ok
<3> it's all there
<1> Ok I followed the howto
<1> does this look right http://paste.ubuntu-nl.org/1012/
<3> Modes "1440x900_60.00"
<3> in you Depth 24 subsection
<1> ok, so replace "1440x900" with "1440x900_60.00"
<3> yes
<1> ok got it
<1> so do I need to add the option to override the use of EDID/DDC still?
<3> yes
<1> how do I do that?
<4> What exactly am I to add to pkgtools.conf so I can get the older drivers installed?
<3> wtf is pkgtools.conf?
<3> certainly not an nvidia thing...
<3> perhaps ask in your distro's channel?
<4> Well, sorry. In FreeBSD6 it states to add something to the /pkgtools.conf. Sorry.
<4> I'll look there.
<3> phixnay: that's changed over time, it depends on your driver version
<1> ok
<3> it's something like UseEDID
<3> search the readme for that
<1> synaptic says I have 1.0.8776+2.6.17.7-10.1 installed
<1> device section
<1> Option "UseEDID"
<1> is that right?
<3> that's not the option
<3> <3> it's something like UseEDID
<1> I searched google, and it said that. I couldn't find it on your page
<3> http://sh.nu/p/8118
<3> Option "UseEDID" "FALSE"
<3> Option "UseEDIDFreqs" "FALSE"
<3> Option "UseEDIDDpi" "FALSE"
<3> use those
<1> alright
<1> in the device section right?
<3> yes
<1> kk got it
<1> ok I'll try restarting x now
<5> hello i tryed to install nvidia drivers into my suse with the package manger and now it won't load
<5> in my SaX.log i got a error FATAL: Module nvidia not found.
<5> anyone know how i can revert back?
<3> revert back to what?
<5> back to the vesa driver
<5> so i can try to reload this in suse
<6> Hi \ Bye
<7> morning everyone
<7> I did a lot of troubleshooting but I still can't get beyond 59FPS in glxgears
<8> sounds like vsync
<7> oh
<7> what do I need to do?
<7> even netlama of nvnews was confused
<7> i posted it on nvnew.net/vbulletin but responses didn't helped
<9> Turn off "sync to vblank" in nvidia-settings
<10> everytime i lose fps some lib got updated in xorg and reinstalling fixes it
<7> hi aaronp, it's turned off
<7> i don't know why i'm really getting on 59 FPS
<7> only 59 FPS
<7> btw, i started using 1.767, 1.8178, then the latest/newest, I remember getting 59 FPS for all versions
<7> i don
<7> i don't know what's wrong with my settings
<7> glxinfo shows the direct rendering is yes
<7> xdpyinfo shows GLX and NV-GLX
<11> What's your screen's refresh rate?
<11> (nvidia-settings -q RefreshRate)
<7> 59
<7> you mean the setting in my xorg?
<7> let me try that
<11> Yeah, it really sounds like sync to vblank is still on somehow.
<7> let me check the command you gave me
<7> [mythtv@localhost root]$ nvidia-settings -q RefreshRate
<7> Attribute 'RefreshRate' (localhost:0.0; display device: CRT-0): 29.97 Hz.
<7> 'RefreshRate' is an integer attribute.
<7> 'RefreshRate' is a read-only attribute.
<7> 'RefreshRate' is display device specific.
<7> 'RefreshRate' can use the following target types: X Screen, GPU.
<7> what is that 29.97 Hz there, is that vertical?
<11> Wow, that's low. Is it an interlaced mode?
<7> yes
<11> Ah
<7> but something is wrong
<7> i have to dig my earlier post about screen shaking on the latest version of nvidia
<7> when i was using 1.8178, my vert refresh is 59
<7> but now, it is showing only 29.97
<7> bug in the latest version
<11> Doubtful.
<11> Something is probably wonky with your display's EDID or your xorg.conf.
