LCD Screen X problems

ZennouRyuu · Posted: Sat Jan 04, 2003 4:30 am Post subject: LCD Screen X problems

I am trying to get X configured in Gentoo 1.4rc2 on my Toshiba 1415-S173 but cant get the 15'' LCD panel to work properly, by that I mean it will work, but only in 800x600 res and even then an inch on the right of the screen that is cut off. I have read through all of my docs that came with the laptop but the bastards didnt give me exact frequencies for the screen. If anyone can help i would be most greateful.

I've noticed the following code in my XF86Config file, I don't know if it's present for you, but I thought that if you put false for the crtscreen and maybe some size for panelsize that it might help.

hmmmm no luck, and I tried the -configure flag and in the monitor section it left it nearly blank, same in the screens section. the next XFree is due out this month so maybe i will have more luck with it..................

I found the problem, it was my configuration, there are two options that Toshiba users shold add to get the GeForce4 working

How can I tell if my 3D acceleration works?

well if you use an NVidia card (and you havnt manually disabled the splash) you will see and nvidia logo when X starts if you are using some other OpenGL supported card, run xgears, you should get about 300fps if you are 3d accelerated.
