Hi all,

this is my xrandr output:

Code:


xrandr --verbose

Chipset:

Code:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82946GZ/GL Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02)


1440x900 mode is missing, so i decided to add this manualy because in WIN7 this mode is working just fine.

Code:


cvt 1440 900
# 1440x900 59.89 Hz (CVT 1.30MA) hsync: 55.93 kHz; pclk: 106.50 MHz
Modeline "1440x900_60.00"  106.50  1440 1528 1672 1904  900 903 909 934 -hsync +vsync

xrandr --newmode "1440x900_60.00"  106.50  1440 1528 1672 1904  900 903 909 934 -hsync +vsync

xrandr --addmode  default "1440x900_60.00"

xrandr --output default --mode 1440x900_60.00
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed



KMS is enabled in my kernel 3.10.17-gentoo

Code:

uname  -a
Linux stable 3.10.17-gentoo #2 SMP PREEMPT Sat Nov 16 13:27:37 CET 2013 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux

lsmod |grep intel

where the problem can be?

thanks..!


EDIT: It looks driver was falling back to VESA even intel was instaled. Unmerged VESA- no screen at all. Solved by adding missing mapkey USE flag to udev, recompiling xorg-server, xorg-drivers, xf86-video-intel. After reboot xrandr shows all Monitor modes including 1440x900 and intel driver is used.
