Hi all, I'm trying to create a pristine xorg.conf, but I've been unable to find proper values for HorizSync and VertRefresh for my Dell Latitude D610. I've tried the values presented in MonitorsDB <http://sources.gentoo.org/viewcvs.py/gentoo/src/hwdata/MonitorsDB?view=markup>; for "Dell 1400x1050 Laptop Display Panel", which are HorizSync 31.5-90.0 and VertRefresh 59.0-75.0, but I get a warning in /var/log/Xorg.0.log for both of them saying they are "not within DDC ranges." I've tried looking around the Dell web pages, but I haven't found any pages mentioning these parameters (not too surprising, really). I've tried to leave these settings out, but even then I get a warning: (WW) I810(0): config file hsync range 60-66.3158kHz not within DDC hsync ranges. I'm wondering if this has anything to do with the other warnings I get during startup: (WW) I810(0): Bad V_BIOS checksum and (WW) I810(0): Extended BIOS function 0x5f05 failed. It seems that a DDC (or, apparently, DDS) query should be able to determine these numbers, but cd /usr/ports && make search name=ddc && make search name=dds doesn't give any tools to deal with this. The relevant part of /etc/X11/xorg.conf: Section "Monitor" Identifier "Dell Latitude D610 monitor" VendorName "SEC" ModelName "3450" # From Xorg.0.log DisplaySize 286 214 Option "DPMS" EndSection -- Victor Engmark Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum videtur - What is said in Latin, sounds profound
