NVidia 6600GT & Samsung 940BF

[PlusOne2k]

Aloha,

i am not able to use 1280x1024 on my Samsung 940BF.
Tryed many things to fix or to analyse.

Perhaps the TFT delivers wromg information about his modes ?
I am able to run the Samsung 940BF with XP 1280x1024@60Khz / 75Khz.

Additional Info :

Nvidia Treiber : NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-9755-pkg1
Xserver : 6.08
TFT : Samsung 940BF (able to run 75KHz)
GFX : 6600 GT

xrandr delivers strange informations :

I will create an bug report in the evening, hopefully some ppl got a solution for this strange Problem.

Please start X with the following command:
startx -- -logverbose 6

and then post an nvidia-bug-report.log.

Thanks,

** UPDATE **

Hopefully the log is right : nvidia-bug-report.log

I am stuck at the moment, got no further ideas.

[PlusOne2k]

Puuh, no answer from the log ?

I realy whish to use 1280x1024 ... but got no idea how to manage.
If someone could verify the log or the xorg.conf /x.log - i would be happy.

Greets, Plus.

You did not follow my instructions.

[PlusOne2k]

Oh, yes you are right. I forgot to use the option -- -logverbose, cause i used a wrong syntax - my fault. Sorry.

I stopped the KDM via sudo /etc/init.d/kdm stop
and startet X with the -- -logverbose 6, finaly runned the nvidia-bug-report.sh.

I noticed that the logfile is now longer as before.

nvidia-bug-report.log

In your bug report I see:

(II) NVIDIA(0): Validating Mode "1280x1024":
(II) NVIDIA(0): 1280 x 1024 @ 60 Hz

(WW) NVIDIA(0): Mode is rejected: Mode (1280 x 1024) is too large for DFP
(WW) NVIDIA(0): Native Resolution (Max: 1024 x 768).

Please try adding the following options to the Device section of xorg.conf:

Option "ExactModeTimingsDVI" "true"
Option "ModeValidation" "NoDFPNativeResolutionCheck"
