[SOLVED] X resolution not correctly detected after reinstall.

mpyusko · 08-17-2011, 12:40 PM

When I first installed Squeeze, X loaded to 1024x768. I've installed Ubuntu and Red Hat in the meantime and now I'm back to Debain. Up to this point everything detected 1024x768. But now with a fresh install of Squeeze, I'm only allowed up to 800x600.

I know X is now self detecting. I didn't change any hardware, why is it giving me issues?

jdkaye · 08-17-2011, 01:04 PM

It sounds like it hasn't loaded the correct driver for your graphics card. If you're using an Xorg driver, is it radeon or radeonhd? or are you installing a proprietary AMD fglrx driver?

mpyusko · 08-19-2011, 01:16 AM

Older than that. Voodoo3. But I've had it working fine for several weeks in a few different setups. I Just moved the card to a new system, and as I said, it was working fine. I assume debian uses a scripts to detect Xorg configurations. On my other systems with current distros, I still see Xorg.conf files under /etc/X11. But not in Debian. For kicks, I just reinstalled Debian again to see if it was a fluke, but apparently it happened again. So I wonder what changed. My hardware hasn't.

jdkaye · 08-19-2011, 01:42 AM

Voodoo3? That's 20th century stuff. Do you know what driver Debian has installed? Do you know what driver previous installations used? Can you post the output of

Code:

lspci -k

Also try this:

Code:

lsmod |grep radeon

Let us know what you find.
Debian (and I'm sure many other distros) no longer uses xorg.conf files by default.

I'm sorry. Your sig confused me. ATI Radeon HD 5670 has nothing to do with the system you're talking about in this thread, correct? Maybe you want to make that clear. So you're using a voodoo3_smbus driver which translates into a i2c_voodoo3 module that is loaded. Since the specs given in your sig seem to have no relevance here, I have no idea what monitor you're using and what its capabilities are. Assuming it can give you 1028x768 then you might want to check what resolutions are supported by the voodoo3_smbus driver.
Ciao,
jdk

Let us know what you find.

Voodoo3 uses the tdfx module, not radeon, which appears to be loaded correctly looking at the OP's lsmod output.

Resolution problems like that are usually not related to the video card but the monitor or EDID. What type of monitor do you have connected? i.e. is it a CRT or an LCD, can you post the model?

//edit: Before I forget, install libglide2, libglide3, mesa-utils, libgl1-mesa-dri they will not solve this problem, but you will probably want them later.

jdkaye,

voodoo3_smbus is the kernel driver
tdfx is the xorg (user mode) driver

Thanks for the clarification. I didn't know there were two levels of drivers. Am I correct in thinking that the xorg's radeon driver is both? It is listed as the kernel driver for my graphics card and it is also listed in the /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers directory.
thanks,
jdk

mpyusko · 08-19-2011, 11:45 AM

Yes, everything, even libglide(x) is installed. The monitor can handle 1024x768@70HZ as it's maximum resolution. It's an old Optiquest Q51. This machine is a server. Dual Xeon@2.8GHx, 2MB, 800FSB. The integrated RageXL is pathetic compared to the Voodoo3 2000 PCI (which happenes to be my only PCI based Video Card I have laying around). This is a network server so the high-level graphics aren't really necessary, except I do prefer to admin in X. The double video memory and ~double clock speed really help in this case. The Motherboard is an SE7520BD2 which is all PCI, PCI-X, and PCIe (x4, x8) expansion.

The system in my signature is my Desktop computer which is my primary. I also have a laptop running Debian, and a couple older machines running Slackware. Plus the random times I use Knoppinx or some other Live CD distro to fix someone's broken-down, washed-up windows computer.

cynwulf · 08-19-2011, 12:45 PM

Create an xorg.conf as below, restart X - and see if that does the trick:

Code:

Section "Monitor"
	Identifier	"Monitor0"
	HorizSync      30-56
        VertRefresh    50-120  
EndSection

Section "Screen"
	Identifier	"Screen0"
	Monitor		"Monitor0"
	Device		"Video0"
	DefaultDepth	16

	SubSection      "Display"
		Depth          16
		Modes          "1024x768_70"
	EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Device"
	Identifier	"Video0"
	Driver	"tdfx"
EndSection

@jdkaye: there are several kernel modules used in fact - I'm no expert, but radeon works differently anyway as it uses kernel mode setting.

mpyusko · 08-23-2011, 05:34 PM

This is the current Xorg.0.log. (I have one PS/2 keyboard & Mouse, 1 USB mouse, one graphics adapter, and one display monitor)

Before I 'rig' the system with a custom config file, and knowing one didn't exist befre when it was working correctly, I'd like to see (if possible) if something is just not included that should be.

An Optiquest Q51 is optimal at 1024x768@85Hz, though I've only had it up to 70Hz in Linux.
My Voodoo3 2000 PCI can do that and others all the way up to 1440x900@60Hz(and more if it's strictly 2D).

Try the xorg.conf first. It won't do any harm as you can remove it. If you're very sure the monitor can do up to 85Hz - make the change in xorg.conf.

I don't see anything relevant in the log file, so it's likely a simple EDID problem. Monitors which do not provide EDID always require manual configuration.

I have no idea why you got 1024x768 before reinstalling.

Ok, I copied the lines from above and placed them in a brand new xorg.conf file. Seems to be working now.... Sort of.... It just booted X into 1440x900@60Hz on a 15" CRT. (Head hits desk) At least its better than 800x600 right. Now excuse me while I go find a magnifying class so I can adjust it again.

Thanks.
