[indiana-discuss] ATI display resolution issue - DVI port

[Philip H Sims]

After installing 2008.05 my resolution was set to 1024x768, I could not get it to 1280x1024.  This was not a problem in the prior release, DP2.

I switched the DVI cable to VGA and Xorg started with the correct resolution - 1280x1024.

With both cables connected, xrandr gives the following, indicating that both ports are current?

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 1024, maximum 1280 x 1200
VGA-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 338mm x 270mm
   1280x1024      60.0*+   75.0     59.9  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  
DVI-0 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right) 338mm x 270mm
   1280x1024      60.0*+   75.0     59.9  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  

Xorg log indicates this is a radeon Xpress 200G:

 ATI Technologies Inc RS480 [Radeon Xpress 200G Series]
 ATI Technologies Inc unknown chipset (0x5854) rev 0, M


Any ideas what is wrong?
