 Posted: Thu Apr 06, 2006 12:07 pm Post subject: nvidia twinview, different resolutions without panning |
 |
|
Hi,
I have a problem with nvidia twinview. I have one monitor running at 1280x1024 and the other running at 1024x768. The problem is that the big monitor (1280x1024), is "zoomed" in and when i move the mouse to the left border it pans/scrolls. Is there a way to solve this? or do i have to use the same resolution om both monitors,
thanks

| You are best off using the same resolution on both monitors. |

If you run the card as 2 seperate devices it's pretty easy to get them running at different resolutions, but you lose the ability to move appos easliy from one to the other.
Check out the config I listed in this thread. I was running Monitor 0 at 1280 and Monitor 1 at 1024 without a problem. The setup it's in will make it 2 seperate display devices. If you want you can eliminate the setup for the "nvidia1" Display device and uncomment all the TwinView stuff in the config for "nvidia0" |

| thanks for the replys, i think ill use the same resoultion on both monitors, cause i think moving windows between them is important. guess ill have to live with 60hz on one of them. |

It is possible to use different resolutions without panning. Here is my config:
| Code: | Section "Device"
Driver "nvidia"
Identifier "Geforce Go 6600"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option "RenderAccel" "true"
Option "NoLogo" "true"
Option "UseEdidDpi" "false"
Option "DPI" "96 x 96"
Option "TwinView" "on"
Option "TVOutFormat" "SVIDEO"
Option "TVStandard" "PAL-B"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "DFP, TV"
Option "TwinViewOrientation" "TV-0 RightOf DFP-0"
Option "HorizSync" "DFP-0: 30-75; TV-0: 30-50"
Option "VertRefresh" "DFP-0: 60-75; TV-0: 50-60"
Option "MetaModes" "DFP-0: 1280x800, TV-0: 1024x768"
EndSection |
True that my screens are DFP and TV, but I see no reason why it shouldn't be the same for two CRTs, just use CRT-0 and CRT-1. |
