In xorg.conf:
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Default Screen"
Device "Intel Corporation 82865G Integrated Graphics Device"
Monitor "Generic Monitor"
DefaultDepth 24
SubSection "Display"
Depth 24
Modes "1280x1024" "1152x864" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" "320x200"

#Virtual 1024 768
Modes "320x240" "800x600" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "1280x960" "800x600"
EndSubSection
EndSection
The problem is that when I switch to 320x200, the screen displays a
viewport, 320x240 in size, looking onto a 1280x1024 desktop. In other
words, the resolution is native 1280x1024, but only a 320x200 piece of it
shows. The rest of the screen is a very large black border.
When X starts, I see the following message:
(1152x864,Generic Monitor) mode clock 100000MHz exceeds DDC maximum 140MHz
(320x200,Generic Monitor) mode clock 100000MHz exceeds DDC maximum 140MHz
(1600x1200,Generic Monitor) mode clock 162MHz exceeds DDC maximum 140MHz
I'm curious how a monitor that can display 1280x1024 has trouble displaying
320x200. I *really* would like 320x200 so I can play scummvm at full
screen.
Any hints/ideas on how to force this particular resolution?
Thanks,
Pete
