Ctrl-Alt-+/- zoom keys not working in xorg server 1.7.1 in Fedora 12. Version xorg-x11-server-1.7.1-7.fc12. Modes are setup in xorg.conf and xvidtune -prev/-next switches between this modes. I have tried both vesa and nvidia drivers. Setting option DontZoom to false don't help. Ctrl-Alt-Fn and Ctrl-Alt-Backspace keys are working.

Same problem, nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7800 GT]
(In reply to comment #6) > Same problem, nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7800 GT] > Without boot param nomodeset, I get consoles with unreadable small text size. With above param normal size 80x25 consoles. Using nv driver on the same machine, does allow zoom.
For me zoom keys not working with nv driver too. I have VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G70 [GeForce 7300 GT]
With RandR1.2, useful things were thrown on the floor; good examples are Virtual resolutions, and the ability to quickly cycle through a modeslist. Both of which are things that "old-school" graphic driver developers, who were doing xfree86 style drivers instead of kdrive at the time of the fork, would never just drop. I am still disgusted at how the Virtual directive got abused; the driving forces behind RandR1.2 didn't need it, so no-one needed it. The virtual modes later got re-added by my then-colleague Matthias Hopf in RandR1.3, even though i was the only person he could name that uses it. The mode cycling, even though its implementation seems trivial, even in a multi crtc/output/monitor setting, has not been added again/yet. So if mode cycling fails, it is because you are most likely running a driver which uses RandR1.2 or 1.3.

Zoom keys are working in xorg-x11-server-1.7.5.
