 Posted: Sun Nov 30, 2008 1:04 pm Post subject: DisplaySize not respected with Intel 945GM onboard videocard |
 |
|
I've a problem on my mediacenter, I can't get X to respect my settings for DisplaySize so all videos are played with the wrong aspect ratio on my 16:9 TV.
I've set DisplaySize to 900 500 and the resolution is 1024x768@60
But then I run xrandr in X, display size is shown to be 0x0 mm. I've also tried setting it manually with xrandr --fbmm not this has no effect and prints no error.
I have xorg-server 7.4 and xf86-video-intel-2.5.1. I use the driver "intel" not the "i810".
What can I do to fix this?
This is my xorg.conf

You have to reference the monitor section in the device section to apply it, see Gentoo Wiki. This means you have to add:
| Code: | Option "Monitor-LVDS" "Monitor0"
|
to your xorg.conf. "Monitor-LVDS" may be wrong. Set it acourdingly to your connection type. |

Thanks it helped a little. The Font sizes are now better, but mplayer still shows the wrong aspect ratio.
That was fixed then I switched cable from the VGA-cable to a DVI->HDMI cable, but this gives another problem (the reason I haven't used it until now).
I'm now able to have the resolution of 1920x1080 which is nice but I'm missing parts of the picture on all sides of the screen. Mostly top and bottom is missing.
Are there some way I can fix this new problem?
Virtual is the size as the resolution is.
For some reason xrandr reports that physiscal size is now 160mm x 90mm, which isn't what I told it but it seems to work any way both font size and aspect ratio in mplayer looks fine. |
