Xorg and Dell 2405fpw 24 Inch LCD

i3bargon · 11-09-05, 03:02 PM

I have a Sun W2100z workstation running Solaris 10 and my video card is a Nvidia Quadro 4 card (NV280) and its connected to a Dell 2405fpw 24 Inch LCD via a DVI connecter. Im trying to set my display to 1920x1200 @60hz and have been unsucessful. Also, I am using the 1.0-7667 drivers.

Has anyone out there been able to get this working? If so could you post your xorg.conf file. I will post mine later on today in case anyone could tell me what im doing wrong.

Thanks in advance.

Hey, thanks! That xorg.conf finally managed to let me get 1920 x 1200 on my Dell 2405FPW via the VGA analog connection (it's on a KVM with other machines).

Somebody oughta make this a Sticky on the forum.
