Re: [PATCH 2.6.16] Add 1366x768 (WXGA) mode to modedb

Just checked on the actual machine. 1366x768M-32@60 did not work at all -- the display is completely jumbled. 1366x768MR-32@60 seems to work, but I'm not entirely convinced. The display looks a bit scaled at points, but fbset -i reports that it is indeed running at 1366x768. But, the other issue is that it's still reporting 59Hz instead of 60Hz. Since it seems sketchy that the 1366x768 would continue to work since CVT specifies rounding off the pixels to multiples of 8, I think the best solution would be to put the modeline in the table. dennis On Apr 28, 2006, at 10:41 PM, Antonino A.

I'm away from the actual machine, but I did just try it blindly and checked out the output from the driver with dmesg: fbcvt: Aspect ratio not CVT standard fbcvt: 1360x768@60: CVT Name - Not a CVT standard - 1.044 Mega Pixel Image intelfb: intelfb_check_var: accel_flags is 0 intelfb: intelfb_var_to_depth: bpp: 32, green.length is 0 intelfb: Initial video mode is 1366x768-32@59. It looks as if something valid is coming back and the driver is setting up the mode, but at this point I don't know if there is really something on the display or not. One thing that is disconcerting is that I asked for 60Hz and it returned back 59Hz. Another thing, which may be nothing, is that second line where it says the mode is 1360x768. I am specifically requesting 1366x768M-32@60 in for my modeline.Ah, okay. The CVT standard will always round off the horizontal resolution to 8 pixels so 1360 from 1366.quoted
I will be able to test it more thoroughly on Monday when I am back in the office.Let me know if it works, but I'll still send your patch to mainline. Tony
