[Xorg] Can't config a higher resolution

Hi all.

I just installed a new Slackware on my desk with KDE, by default it just has a 1024*768 resolution, so I installed the packages nvidia-kernel and nvidia-drivers with sbopkg. I rebooted and then I just typed nvidia-xconfig for make a new xorg.conf, after that, I saw there is not the resolution that I want (1600*900), so I added it in the configuration file (xorg.conf)

Code:
Section "Screen"
	Identifier "Screen0"
	Device     "card0"
	Monitor    "Monitor0"
	DefaultDepth 24
Subsection "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes "1600x900" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubsection
EndSection
When I start xorg with startx, it just appears a low resolution (1024*768). Then I watched the log file and here is.

The problem appears to be the monitor itself.

It should be reporting an EDID value (which I don't see)..

The other thing I see is that only the VGA connection is being used.

Now if the monitor is not presenting the EDID value (or for some reason it is incorrect) then it is possible that what is happening is that default values for the clock rates are being used (and may be incorrect).

I "worked around" this problem once by specifying the clocks for a monitor in the "section Monitor" using:
Code:
Section "Monitor"
    Identifier	"monitor0"
    VendorName	"monitor0 vendor"
    ModelName	"unknown monitor"
    HorizSync	31.5 - 80
    VertRefresh	40 - 80
    Option	"dpms"
EndSection
If you have an LCD monitor then the clocks are arbitrary. Going out of bounds on a CRT will destroy the flyback transformer.

You can try the HorizSync to be as high as 120 without issues, and the VertRefresh should be able to handle that too.

This might be why the "1600x900" mode isn't available - it is just out of bounds of the default clock ranges.

BTW, the lower values 31.5 and 40 should allow a 640x480 mode minimum.

I once had a laptop with an nVidia GPU that had an incorrect value in the EDID.
I captured the EDID and used a hex editor to change the incorrect value. I then used the "CustomEDID" option provided by the nVidia driver to load the modified EDID. For further details see here

Thanks for your reply! I tried to put this settings and run Xorg.

Code:

    ModelName      "Monitor Model"

Thanks for your reply! I tried to capture the EDID value with nvidia-settings, but the "acquire EDID" button appears like unavailable. (See the link)

Because of that, I installed the read-edid package from SBO. Here are the results:

Try using 150 for the HorizSync. You can go higher, I just don't know what NVIDIA actually uses. For LCD monitors it won't hurt anything.

Thanks for your reply! I tried with that HorizSync and I still can't set the correct resolution.

Not sure what to use after that. The modes shown cover the range you want, just not the specific one.

Only think left would be to try an HDMI connector, but something does seem to be off about that monitor.

One possiblity... You might try generating a mode definition specific to what you want:

http://arachnoid.com/modelines/

This is an online tool that should provide a mode definition based on your requirement.
Perhaps that would work.

From the Xorg.0.log in post #1
Code:
[  1872.809] (**) NVIDIA(0): Using HorizSync/VertRefresh ranges from the EDID for display
[  1872.809] (**) NVIDIA(0):     device CRT-1 (Using EDID frequencies has been enabled on
[  1872.809] (**) NVIDIA(0):     all display devices.)
[  1872.811] (WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "CRT-1:1600x900"; removing.
[  1872.813] (II) NVIDIA(0): Validated MetaModes:
[  1872.813] (II) NVIDIA(0):     "CRT-1:1024x768"
[  1872.813] (II) NVIDIA(0):     "CRT-1:800x600"
[  1872.813] (II) NVIDIA(0):     "CRT-1:640x480"
[  1872.813] (II) NVIDIA(0): Virtual screen size determined to be 1024 x 768
[  1872.820] (WW) NVIDIA(0): CRT-1 does not have an EDID, or its EDID does not contain a
[  1872.820] (WW) NVIDIA(0):     maximum image size; cannot compute DPI from CRT-1's EDID.
[  1872.820] (==) NVIDIA(0): DPI set to (75, 75); computed from built-in default
What are the details of the monitor (manufacturer and model)?
Are you sure that it can operate with your preferred resolution?
If so, then I agree with jpollard that a custom ModeLine entry in the Monitor section of your xorg.conf is worth trying. In addition to the on-line tool, you can use 'cvt' to generate modelines.
You may also want to consider
Quote:
Option "UseEdidFreqs" "boolean"

This option controls whether the NVIDIA X driver will use the HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges given in a display device's EDID, if any. When UseEdidFreqs is set to True, EDID-provided range information will override the HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges specified in the Monitor section. If a display device does not provide an EDID, or the EDID does not specify an hsync or vrefresh range, then the X server will default to the HorizSync and VertRefresh ranges specified in the Monitor section of your X config file. These frequency ranges are used when validating modes for your display device.

Default: True (EDID frequencies will be used)

Option "UseEDID" "boolean"

By default, the NVIDIA X driver makes use of a display device's EDID, when available, during construction of its mode pool. The EDID is used as a source for possible modes, for valid frequency ranges, and for collecting data on the physical dimensions of the display device for computing the DPI (see Appendix Y, Dots Per Inch). However, if you wish to disable the driver's use of the EDID, you can set this option to False:

Option "UseEDID" "FALSE"

Note that, rather than globally disable all uses of the EDID, you can individually disable each particular use of the EDID; e.g.,

Option "UseEDIDFreqs" "FALSE"
Option "UseEDIDDpi" "FALSE"
Option "ModeValidation" "NoEdidModes"

Default: True (use EDID).
