arrghhhhhhhh.... anyone got any ideas why my screen res/refresh has 0 relation to xorg.conf? I'm using nvidia drivers (from mid last year) and whatever I put in xorg.conf (720x576 modeline as the only mode) it's defaulting back to either a 1024*768 at 80Hz, 1280*whatever or 1600*whatever resolution, even though there's no mention of any of these in xorg.conf. Even the nvidia-settings wizard seems to be in a world of it's own with around 30 odd different res/refresh rates available that aren't in xorg.conf.
Does anyone using nvidia drivers know how I can actually control the modeline? This is all I wanna use:
Modeline "720x576pali" 13.88 720 742 808 888 576 580 583 625 -hsync -vsync interlace
My current xorg.conf is below if anyone knows how to change it, like I say I've tried stripping out everything but the above modeline + reference to it in Screen and a different horizsync and vertrefresh but it's not getting me anywhere...
Thanks. Christopher.
