Video problems

[nvinicio67]

Hi all
I have tried to change my Hardware Display
But on my computer doesn't work properly
The video after changed is all black and say to me:
INPUT NOT SUPPORTED

I am going to explain step bye step my change

--------------------------------------------------------------
I use system-config-display
- Monitor Type Configure
- Show all avaible monitor

From the avaible list i choose:
acer AL1714

I reboot my computer because I have this message
"You need to log out and restart the X server for the changes to take effect.
Configuration was written to /etc/X11/xorg.conf."


So a section of my /etc/X11/xorg.conf is now
...
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
ModelName "Acer AL1714"
HorizSync 30.0 - 82.0
VertRefresh 50.0 - 75.0
Option "dpms"
EndSection
...

As this is your first post, I will forgive you for reviving this very old and dead thread and I will split your post into a thread of its own. I will also ask you to read the forum guidelines before posting again. Thanks.

Edit: Also, what is your video card make/model?

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "intel"
EndSection
In the above section of xorg.conf try the intel driver and also try "vesa".

Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "vesa"
EndSection
Another option may be "i810".
Section "Device"
Identifier "Videocard0"
Driver "i810"
EndSection

In xorg.conf I have tried with:

1- Driver "vesa"
2- Driver "intel"
3- Driver "i810"

but unfortunately with all these parameters doesn't work properly the same

This is an integrated (on-board) chipset, and is unlikely to have much VRAM - in fact, it may be sharing system RAM.

Try reducing screen resolution and color depth forcibly:Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Videocard0"
Monitor "Monitor0"
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
EndSectionTry 'Driver "intel" ' first. See if that helps.

I have tried these change:
...
DefaultDepth 16
SubSection "Display"
Depth 16
Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
EndSubSection
...

and after from system-config-display I have changed these parameters
Resolution: 1280x1024
ColorDepth: Milions of Colors


Now everything seem fine!!!
Thanks for your help
