[CentOS] CentOS 5.2 nVidia GeForce 7300GS resolution problem
I have a Gigabyte nVidia GeForce 7300GS on an Intel DG965WHMKR mobo attached to an LG Flatron LG204WT widescreen monitor. I'm driving the monitor at 1680*1050, and the picture is compressed into the right-hand two-thirds of the screen. The monitor is OK as it's attached via a KVM switch to another machine - also with an nVidia card - and it displays perfectly on that. It looks like some sort of scan rate problem - anyone experienced this? If so, anyone know the solution? TIA -- Dick Holland

Does your /etc/X11/xorg.conf look correct? If you ran system-config-display it should have inserted information from the DDC from the monitor. Also, a kudzu whould have contributed some information. On the other system, can you get the timings and compare to the CentOS system? Did you google yet? Lots of times answers are found there.> > TIA >HTH -- Bill
