Here is my corg.conf:

Yes, I have that overlay there, but I only installed beryl from there last week and it worked well (works still well but this 800x600 resolution sucks... :x)

And I ran "emerge -uvDN world" yesterday and it updated libnotify to version 0.4.3 which is in ~arch I think. (I'm using gnome 2.16 and if I remember right it required libnotify's ~arch version. But downgrading libnotify doesn't help). And then totem was updated too to version 2.16.2-r1. But I can't see why totem or libnotify would break my resolution because downgrading to the versions that I used when everything worked doesn't help to solve the problem.

And to the last question: I haven't changed my screen.

i don t get it... sorry
maybe something ot deal with the default depths allowed for a given resolution... but don t understand why...
anyway, here s my x11 section:
Quote:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen 1"
Device "X300 RV370"
Monitor "Mitsubishi Diamond Scan"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 8
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 16
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
SubSection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSection


and what about trying gnome's tool to change the resolution? it should be possible to switch up to 1280 x 1024...

EDIT:
try this:
Quote:
x11-misc/chgres

just to see what you get...

EDIT2:
and what about a new script at init.d that changes the resolution without asking?

what a pity... I'm trying to solve what causes this problem. Maybe I find the answer. :roll:

Gnome's tool gives me only 800x600 resolution to choose.

It complains about this: "Xlib: extension "XFree86-VidModeExtension" missing on display ":1.0"."

And how would I do that? 8O

But gotta go... I'll try to solve this by myself then...

EDIT:

hmm... I tried some recompiling and now I have these messages in my Xorg.0.log:
Code:

(WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1280x1024"; removing.
(WW) NVIDIA(0): No valid modes for "1024x768"; removing.
(WW) NVIDIA(0):
(WW) NVIDIA(0): Unable to validate any modes; falling back to the default mode
(WW) NVIDIA(0):     "nvidia-auto-select".
(WW) NVIDIA(0):


Going on on my way to solve the problem... :wink:

Having the same problem - with an ati radeon mobility 7500. on a laptop with a 1400x1050 screen only doing 640x480!
so, it does not appear to be driver-dependent...

Hmm....seems that if I reboot with a good config, it will come up with the correct resolution...but then if I stop X, and start it up again, it dumps down to 640x480.
I'm using /etc/init.d/xdm to bring up, and take down X.

Now it works. 8O But why...? I only recompiled nvidia-drivers few times and randomly few xorg related packages. actually I recompiled glproto, xorg-x11 and xorg-server but it didn't work last night. But I'm happy that it works now. :D

Same problem as noted elsewhere... here and, also here :?

Is this likely a bug that should be reported?

new nvidia drivers try to use EDID, you can disable it adding -->>

Code:
    Option      "Metamodes" "1152x864"
    Option      "UseEDID" "FALSE"


into MONITOR section of xorg.....

I had the exact same problem. After literally days of messing with it, I finally got it working by power cycling my monitor. I have no clue what caused the problem, and it hasn't happened before or since... But pulling the power plug out of the monitor, waiting a few minutes, then plugging it back in, fixed it for me.....

Don't ask why, I have no clue, but that seemed to do the trick.

I found the solution for a similar problem on my Thinkpad here.

I had to edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf by adding:
Code:
Option "MergedFB" "false"

i read something aout glproto with ati problems
some knid of broken links in the new lib, it just needed to be reemerged.
that may be what solved it?

i can t find the link again...
But actually, XGL, AIGLX, ATI, always emerge glproto... maybe emerging it again has helped...
