Subject: [9fans] How get 1280x1024 resolution?
Date: Wed, 2 Aug 2006 13:24:27 +1000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <44D01AEB.2010509@exemail.com.au> (raw)
Another question from this novice Plan 9 user. I'm trying to increase
the screen resolution to 1280x1024 from the present 1024x768x32. I've
examined /lib/vgadb thoroughly but frankly do not entirely understand
it. I've tried one or two options in /n/9fat/plan9.ini, including
monitor=vs1782, vgasize=1280x1024x<various bit settings>. One 9fan in
the archive mentioned simply putting in monitor=t23 in his case. Mine
seems closest to vs1782 but results in "vs1782@1280x1024x<whatever> not
in vgadb". Have also tried monitor=sxga with similar results.
Video card and monitor are capable of supporting 1280x1024x32 or more.
Details are:
Card: RIVA (Nvidia?) TNT2 64
Monitor: Viewsonic VE710s. H freq. 30-82, V 50-85 (very similar to the
characteristics of the vs1782 in vgadb.
