Description Michael Schmuker 2010-06-14 08:15:56 UTC
Created attachment 36267 [details]
output of xrandr --verbose (monitor is connected to HDMI2)

The Samsung SyncMaster 225BW flashes black when connected via DVI and enabled via xrandr --output <x> --preferred. It appears that the default modeline for the 1680x1050 resolution is not compatible with the display. Adding a custom modeline with xrandr restores function of the display. 

Default modeline (from xrandr --verbose)

1680x1050 (0x4f)  146.2MHz -HSync +VSync +preferred
        h: width  1680 start 1784 end 1960 total 2240 skew    0 clock   65.3KHz
        v: height 1050 start 1053 end 1059 total 1089           clock   60.0Hz

Any of these modelines work, when added and enabled via xrandr 

xrandr --newmode "1680x1050+h+v"  119.00  1680 1728 1760 1840  1050 1053 1059
1080 +hsync +vsync
xrandr --newmode "1680x1050+h-v"  119.00  1680 1728 1760 1840  1050 1053 1059
1080 +hsync -vsync
xrandr --newmode "1680x1050-h+v"  119.00  1680 1728 1760 1840  1050 1053 1059
1080 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --newmode "1680x1050-h-v"  119.00  1680 1728 1760 1840  1050 1053 1059
1080 -hsync -vsync
