IBM ThinkPad T20 (2647-84G) & S3 Savage resolution in Xubuntu 8.10

Asked by xlv

With LiveCD Xubuntu 8.10 worked ok in 1028x768 resolution, in case boot did not jammed to black screen.

Then I tried to install Xubuntu by using workspace icon. Installation jammed during loading of partition wizard. Instead, Safe Video mode installation succeeded, but resolution is only 800x600@60Hz. VESA drivers were installed. Both logon screen and workspace are 800x600. Workspace covers the screen only partially.

I tuned the file /etc/X11/xorg.conf according to issues #48732 and #7804, but did not get rid of the problem (see extra comments). Now the resolution of the logon screen is 1024x768, but when system sets video settings (just after login), workspace changes to 800x600 scaled to the whole screen. That is also the largest resolution to select in GUI settings.

I tested resolutions also with parameters
HorizSync 28-51
VertRefresh 43-60
.. without success.

Then I started LiveCD once again and copied xorg.conf file from LiveCD system to the installed system (with help of USB flash memory). But it was useless, problem continued.

"sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg" did not help either.

How to set the resolution of 1024x768?

I tried to add to the Section "Monitor" the row:

ModeLine "1024x768" 56.00 1024 1072 1104 1184 768 771 775 790 +hsync -vsync

... according to http://wiki.x.org/wiki/FAQVideoModes. It did not help. Either the values are wrong (tried to find out the values from the log) or it just not work...

I used PowerStrip with Windows to find out T20 display properties:

"PowerStrip timing parameters:
1024x768=1024,40,136,144,768,3,6,29,14318,2054

Generic timing details for 1024x768:
HFP=40 HSW=136 HBP=144 kHz=11 VFP=3 VSW=6 VBP=29 Hz=13

VESA detailed timing:
PClk=14,32 H.Active=1024 H.Blank=320 H.Offset=24 HSW=136 V.Active=768 V.Blank=38 V.Offset=3 VSW=6

Linux modeline parameters:
"1024x768" 14,318 1024 1064 1200 1344 768 771 777 806 -hsync -vsync
"
..and added the modeline row to xorg.conf [Monitor] section:
modeline "1024x768" 14,318 1024 1064 1200 1344 768 771 777 806 -hsync -vsync

As the result Xubuntu informed me of an error in configuration and asked to fix the display settings. Just great...

Are you sure you do not have any good ideas to fix the problem? Anyone?

BTW, is the correct spelling ModeLine, Modeline or modeline?

Thank you for your answer, John. Unfortunately the settings did not work for me.

I changed BIOS settings, added acpi=force to menu.lst and my xorg.conf looks like this now:

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 BusId "PCI:1:0:0"
 Option "DmaType" "PCI"
 Option "BusType" "PCI"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Monitor "Configured Monitor"
 Device "Configured Video Device"
 Defaultdepth 16
EndSection

The resolution seemed to be 1024x768 until the system announced to set the display settings in logon, After that the resolution is 800x600 scaled to the whole display. It looks awful...

I am grateful for other suggestion in case there is still something to do.

I just noticed, that there happened a little bit progress: Xubuntu makes shutdown correctly now. I guess acpi setting made the trick. Before Linux could not power off even if the system seemed to be down.

It looks like the issue is too tricky to get solved... Perhaps it's better to install W2k back to the laptop. It is impossible to use the PC with 800x600 resolution.

XLV,

somewhere i read an item about this (cannot remember where...); and the solution was:
a trick to rename a resolution in the BIOS.
I remembered this because in your text it says "No suitable BIOS mode found for ..."

I tried to find it this afternoon, but can not find it quick,... please browse in http://help.ubuntu.com and in http://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu

Video-modi have a certain number in the BIOS, and at some BIOSes there are resolutions that somehow cannot be retreived; the trick they did was to "copy" the desired resolution-number to an other number and use that new BIOS-resolution number...

Perhaps this helps you, or gives someone else a clue to help you further with this problem.

xlv (tps-mikropc) said :

Thanks for the tip, Menting.

I'll try to find out something more tangible about renaming resolution modes. I'm not quite sure how it works, but we'll see..

Anyway, it really seems strange, that the resultion is just fine during login, but as soon the system tries to find "the right settings" for the display, resolution changes to 800x600. It might well be something to do with the symptom you described.

And why the resolution is correct when using Xubuntu from the LiveCD? Beats me...

Wim (launchpad-xs4all) said :

Boot from Xubuntu-LIVE-CD,

with your favourite text-editor open the file (probably) /etc/X11/xorg.conf ; seek the location where it says

Section "Monitor"

read the text in the nabourhood of that text; probably there is a standard-resolution; just remember the text of these sections...

Now either browse to your hard disk and seek the same file; or boot Ubuntu, and open the file on your hard disk.

Seek the same location and compare the resolution given here...

Does that give you a clue ?!?

When the laptop was booted from Xubuntu LiveCD, it uses xorg.conf with the settings:

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Monitor "Configured Monitor"
 Device "Configured Video Device"
EndSection

My current xorg.conf includes the settings:

Section "Device"
 Identifier "Configured Video Device"
 BusId "PCI:1:0:0"
 Option "DmaType" "PCI"
 Option "BusType" "PCI"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Configured Monitor"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
 Identifier "Default Screen"
 Monitor "Configured Monitor"
 Device "Configured Video Device"
 Defaultdepth 16
EndSection

I think those should work just fine, but no, just 800x600 resolution.

There is excellent instructions to set resolution in the page
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution

I found two different tools to calculate the values for the resolution 1024x768@60Hz, GTF and CTV. I tried with both results, but the resolution remained still 800x600. On the other hand, there were no error messages, either...

 Am I missing a setting? Check out the current xorg.conf.

Just occurred to my mind: is it possible that Xubuntu LiveCD sets the actual video settings in some other way than using just /etc/X11/xorg.conf ? And then xorg.conf would include only those basic settings which you can see in my previous messages.

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution says:"There are several ways to make xrandr customizations permanent from session to session: a) .xprofile, b) kdm/gdm, c) xorg.conf. ..." Is it so that you can only use one of these methods at the same time, or can they all affect "partially" to the screen settings?

And how to find out, which is the right setting for my laptop's LCD display in the "xrandr --output" parameter?

xlv (tps-mikropc) said :

Concerning the previous message: I tried to ask the right _name_ for my laptop's LCD display in "xrandr --output" parameter (e.g."xrandr --output MYLCD"). Where it is told? I did not notice the answer from "man xrandr".

All other questions are also valid in the previous message.

In my /etc/X11/xorg.conf there is this section:

Section "Screen"

 DefaultDepth 24
 SubSection "Display"

 EndSubSection
 SubSection "Display"
  Depth 24
  Modes "640x480" "800x600"
 EndSubSection
EndSection

(This old monitor can only display 640*480 and 800*600)

If you state "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" in every "Modes"-line, then by default the FIRST resolution is taken, the others are available.
Try to find out which resolutions can be handled by your graphic card and your monitor, and place them in these lines.
Hopes this will help you.

BTW, xrandr command gives just one output device, Screen 0, and the following resolutions:

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 240, current 800 x 600, maximum 1024 x 768
default connected 800x600+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   1024x768 60.0
   800x600 60.0* 56.0
   640x480 60.0
   512x384 60.0
   400x300 60.0 56.0
   320x240 60.0

I do not understand, why the default resolution is 800x600, even if my current xorg.conf sets preferred resolution to 1024x768?

And it looks like Screen 0 is not the right output. I tried with the command:
xrandr --output Screen 0 --mode 1024x768
--> Printed just usage help.

xrandr --output 'Screen 0' --mode 1024x768
--> The system carried out this, but nothing happened. The same thing with this one:
xrandr --output 'Screen 0' --mode 1024x768 --rate 60

   640x480 60.0
.....

so i conclude:
linux thinks your monitor can do 1024*768 at 60.0 Hz, but you tried the command 1024*768 at 56,0 Hz...
So give it a (re-)try with the command-line ModeLine "1024x768" 60.00 1024 1072 1104 1184 768 771 775 790 +hsync -vsync

in your xorg.conf file the section

Section "Monitor"
 Identifier "Configured Monitor"
Modeline "1024x768_60" 64.11 1024 1080 1184 1344 768 769 772 795 -Hsync +Vsync
 Option "PreferredMode" "1024x768_60"

should do the trick (as well at Modline _60 Hz as at Preferred_Mode _60

Thanks anyway, Menting. At least you tried to solve the problem with me.

This issue seems to be very stubborn kind. At least now I know it is best to forget S3 video cards with Linux... Unfortunately it is impossible to change the card to the laptop.

As Menting said, if anyone has good ideas to solve the problem, please come forward.
