Subject: [9fans] screen "wobble"
Date: Thu, 29 Jan 2009 13:43:58 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7df72a6bba22dd0b1fbf68d4f8da38b6@csplan9.rit.edu> (raw)
I've been fiddling around with my netbooting terminal lately and have
noticed that when connected to my Sun monitor the picture tends to
"wobble". That is, it looks as though a wave is passing up the screen
about every second, slightly distorting the picture. I created a
custom /lib/vgadb entry for my monitor (a Sun CPD-4410 CRT) based on
values I gathered with xvidtune, but while it works fine under Linux,
my eyes are aching from the few minutes of using it with Plan 9. I am
attempting to run at 1600x1200x32; the vgadb entry follows.
#
# Sony CPD-4410 CRT
#
cpd-4410=1600x1200
defaultclock=161.00
shb=1664 ehb=1856 ht=2160
vrs=1201 vre=1204 vt=1250
Any ideas what's going wrong here? Oh, and I have an nvidia video
card, if that helps.
