I am using a 15.4" laptop running rawhide. The native resolution of this
monitor is 1680*1050. The graphics card is a according to Xorg.0.log:
(--) RADEON(0): Chipset: "ATI Radeon Mobility X600 (M24) 3150 (PCIE)" (ChipID
= 0x3150)
Running with no xorg.conf file I get the following result for
screen #0:
dimensions: 1680x1050 pixels (444x277 millimeters)
resolution: 96x96 dots per inch
This is wrong, of course.
Creating an xorg.conf file with system-config-display and adding the screen
size I have the following in section in xorg.conf:
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Monitor0"
ModelName "LCD Panel 1680x1050"
HorizSync 31.5 - 65.5
VertRefresh 56.0 - 65.0
DisplaySize 332 207
Option "dpms"
EndSection
Now in Xorg.0.log I get:
(**) RADEON(0): Display dimensions: (332, 207) mm
(**) RADEON(0): DPI set to (128, 206)
...
(II) RADEON(0): Setting screen physical size to 444 x 277
resize called 1680 1050
I think that second dpi is wrong it should probably be something around
126-128. And at the same the driver is ignoring the file settings. :-(
Is this known? If it is a bug where should it be reported? xorg-x11-drv-ati?
