Xorg problems
Okay, I wasn't too sure where to post this, and I did search around for answers, but I couldn't find any. So, here goes:
Recently, I reinstalled the Nvidia drivers for my graphics card (GeForce 5700LE), and I found some odd things happening to xorg. For one thing, when I go to play Starcraft on WINE, Xorg switches to 640x480 mode as usual, but the graphics seem kind of distorted and I was experiencing unusual performance loss. I checked my monitor, and it seemed that Xorg was not running in 640x480 at all! It was running in 1280x960, and somehow pretending to be 640x480, which explains my massive performance loss and the distorted graphics.
When I had the old Nvidia drivers installed, I did not have this problem, everything ran fine. Here's my Xorg configuration file that I'm using for the game:

I've tried mixing and matching various modules in this custom xorg file, but I've had no success. I also tried using my default xorg file to run the game, but still to no avail.
Does anyone here have any idea as to what I can do? If you need more information, just ask, I'll gladly supply. Thank you for taking the time to read this thread. |
