Description Raf LaPietra 2006-09-18 08:15:13 UTC
On a 1GHZ toshiba tecra 8200 which uses a trident cyberblade XP and a sxga+ LCD
at 1400x1050, the screen is shifted left. The leftmost pixels on the screen
display appear on the right edge of the screen. Note that though this is
occuring for me on Solaris 10, this is documented on linux at
http://bugs.xfree86.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1076 .The solution documented there was
to comment out the lines :

fullSize = (mode->HDisplay == LCD[i].display_x) 
	        && (mode->VDisplay == LCD[i].display_y);

in the trident_dac.c and recompile the driver. I used the Xorg 6.9 tree and it
worked for me.

The following are pertinent entries in the xorg.conf file I used:
