That seems to return the set of resolutions probed at startup (i.e. those of the old monitor): $ xrandr -q SZ: Pixels Physical Refresh *0 1280 x 1024 ( 342mm x 271mm ) *60 1 1024 x 768 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 60 2 800 x 600 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 60 3 640 x 480 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 60 4 1280 x 960 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 60 5 1152 x 864 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 6 1152 x 768 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 55 7 832 x 624 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 8 700 x 525 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 60 9 640 x 512 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 60 10 576 x 432 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 11 576 x 384 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 55 12 512 x 384 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 70 60 13 416 x 312 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 14 400 x 300 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 72 60 56 15 320 x 240 ( 342mm x 271mm ) 75 73 60 Current rotation - normal Current reflection - none Rotations possible - normal Reflections possible - none If the list were for the new monitor it would include 1920x1200. Also, I'm looking for the whole collection of settings to include in at least the highest-resolution modeline for the new monitor, such as this entry (which was probed with the old monitor connected -- it works on the new one, but doesn't utilize the higher resolution that should now be available): Modeline "1280x1024" 108.00 1280 1328 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync Based on the new monitor's manual, it should support: # resolution H KHz V Hz 1 640 x 350 31.4 70.0 2 720 x 400 31.4 70.0 3 640 x 480 31.4 59.9 4 640 x 480 37.5 75.0 5 800 x 600 35.1 56.2 6 800 x 600 37.8 60.3 7 800 x 600 46.8 75.0 8 832 x 624 49.7 74.5 9 1024 x 768 48.3 60.0 10 1024 x 768 56.4 70.0 11 1024 x 768 60.0 75.0 12 1152 x 864 67.5 60.0 13 1152 x 870 68.6 75.0 14 1280 x 960 60.0 60.0 15 1280 x 1024 63.9 60.0 16 1280 x 1024 79.9 75.0 17 1440 x 900 55.9 60.0 18 1680 x 1050 64.7 60.0 19 1600 x 1200 75.0 60.0 20 1920 x 1200 74.0 59.9 but that doesn't give me the dot-clock frequencies, the 2nd-4th horizontal and vertical counts, nor the sync polarities.
