Description Andy Furniss 2010-02-25 09:47:17 UTC
RV670 AGP running git ddx, xserver and drt kernel.

I noticed recently that a couple of gtf modelines that uses to work some time ago (with UMS before KMS was about) do not behave the same now - both with UMS and KMS.

I was hoping the recent ddx/drt commits would fix this, but they haven't. Both before and after the changes, the option new_pll=0 or 1 has no effect.

The lines below are added with xrandr and used to give exactly 50 and 100Hz.
As the xrandr output shows they now give less - the 50Hz one has become out of range for my CRT monitor and gives a blank screen.

Looks like this was caused by my xrandr app being too old.

I updated it and it now works - sorry for the false report.
