I am trying to get X on my Sony Z505S with an external monitor. Everything
is working, but I can't get a decent refresh rate on my monitor.
the X server tells me:
(**) NEOMAGIC(0): Mode "1024x768": 85.0 MHz, 62.5 kHz, 75.9 Hz
but my monitor says:
fH = 48.5 kHz
fV = 60.2 Hz
and given the amount of flicker, I believe the monitor :-)
I have tried using the Fn+F7 to switch to CRT only, but when I do that, it
gets worse. The monitor says:
fH = 48.0 kHz
fV = 58.3 Hz
but then if I close the lid, it goes back to
fH = 48.5 kHz
fV = 60.2 Hz
I have no idea what this crazy notebook is doing :-}
I have tried running X with only
Option "extern_disp"
and no "intern_disp", this caused the LCD and the CRT to go blank and
FreeBSD to freeze! So I don't do that anymore :-)
I'm running 4.1.1-Stable, last cvsuped yesterday.
Any suggestions? I'm all out of ideas...
