- Subject: Getting 1152x900 with Orchid ProIIs

- The subject gives you the general idea. I'm using an Orchid Prodesigner
- IIs under Xfree86. The clocks are as follows:
-
- Clocks 25 28 32 36 40 45 80 65 13 14 16 18 20 22 0 0
-
- These correspond both to one of the modeDB entries, and to the clocks
- returned by X. Now, I would like to be able to do the following two
- things:
-
- 1. Get 1024x768 resolution at 70 Hz vertical refresh
- 2. Get a non-interlaced 1152x900 resolution working.
-
- For #1 I tried the following timings:
- "1024x768v" 80 1024 1032 1152 1384 768 784 787 823
- These give me 58 KHz Horizontal, and 70 Hz vertical which are well
- within the specs of my monitor (a MAG MX15F).
-
- For #2 I tried these:
- "1152x900" 80 1152 1160 1376 1548 900 920 940 948
-
- Both modes produced snow on the screen in addition to the regular
- picture, which looked fine otherwise. At first, I was going to
- return the hardware as defective, but I have been able to achieve
- goal #1 under MS-DOS using the drivers supplied by Orchid, so I
- must be doing something wrong to be getting that snow.
-
- Would someone who has gotten the ProIIs to work at 70Hz or in
- 1152x900 NI mode be kind enough to mail me a proper Xconfig file?
-
- Thanks in advance for any help.
