Suse 8.1 fails to detect my monitor
Hello
I installed Suse 8.1 on my pc, however the installation fails to detect my monitor (Dell 15 inch Flat Screen e151fp) and as a result to selects a very big screen resolution 640x480. Not matter what I try I cant seem to change this, I cant do it on Yast, no matter what resolution I select it fails the validation test. I also tried to modify the XF86Config file but this doesnt seem to make any difference. If I force the pc to use a higher resolution eg 1024x768 it displays a error message during boot up saying that it is unable to display the video mode. This happens even if I insert the correct vertical and horizonal refresh frequencies. The following is the relevant part of my config file Section "Monitor" Option "CalcAlgorithm" "CheckDesktopGeometry" HorizSync 31-60 Identifier "Monitor[0]" ModelName "1500FP" VendorName "DELL" VertRefresh 60-75 UseModes "Modes[0]" EndSection Section "Modes" Identifier "Modes[0]" Modeline "640x480" 25.96 640 656 720 864 480 480 489 501 Modeline "640x480" 29.95 640 656 720 864 480 480 489 501 Modeline "1024x768" 66.29 1024 1040 1216 1400 768 768 777 802 Modeline "1024x768" 76.49 1024 1040 1216 1400 768 768 777 802 Modeline "800x600" 40.56 800 816 928 1072 600 600 609 626 Modeline "800x600" 46.80 800 816 928 1072 600 600 609 626 EndSection Section "Screen" DefaultDepth 16 SubSection "Display" Depth 15 Modes "640x480" "1024x768" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 16 Modes "640x480" "1024x768" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "640x480" "1024x768" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 32 Modes "640x480" "1024x768" EndSubSection SubSection "Display" Depth 8 Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection Device "Device[0]" Identifier "Screen[0]" Monitor "Monitor[0]" EndSection Section "Device" BoardName "i845" BusID "0:2:0" Driver "i810" Identifier "Device[0]" Screen 0 VendorName "Intel" EndSection Any suggestions as regrad the problem John Paul O Grady |
