[tlinux-users:08608] Re: Dynabook SS SX 490NK + Debian Etch: Screen Resolution and Refresh Rate

Hi Renato,

Thanks for the reply.
The 75, 85 and 100Hz refresh rate are stated in the laptop manual so the its LCD should support these.
It's a wide screen WXGA so 1280x800 is fine. The problem I have is not with the resolution but enabling the higher refresh rates,

Joel.

I think that this refresh rate is in "VGA Output" and not to your LCD video.
Your video card can reproduce a refresh rate of 75, 85 and 100Hz (with 
lower resolution), but your LCD video can't.

Your LCD is 15" or 15.4" (widescreen)?
1280x800 is to LCD widescreen.
You can edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf, inserting 1024x768 in section "Screen", 
subsection "Modes".
