xorg config for fglrx ATI 4290 Dell 2405FPW
I've just built a new system, the motherboard has an inbuilt ATI 4290 video (part of AMD GX890) and I'm using it with a Dell 2405 monitor.
I've installed the latest Catalyst driver (10.6) from the AMD site, I can build the driver and X starts OK. The control panel for Catalyst says it will support 1920x1200 for a DVI connected screen - which mine is. When I start X it's always 1600x1200 and if I set the resolution via the Catalyst control panel, I get a display that has a black edge on the right of the monitor - about 1/4 of the screen.
At this point, I haven't tried setting any Modelines in xorg.conf as the fglrx driver is getting the information from the monitor via DDC and I'm assuming (probably a bad idea) that this data is correct.
Can anyone make any suggestions regarding this? Should I be setting Modelines regardless of what the driver gets from the monitor?
Log files available if requested
Other that the 1600x1200 limitation, the system (AMD X6 1090t) runs very well.
