NightSprinter:
This is strange, attempting to patch xf86-video-ati sources with the allow_low_res.diff file results in "HUNK #1 failed" at what may be lines 1389 and 3182 in the respective files ./src/drmmode_display.c and ./src/radeon_driver.c
Could there be a possibility this patch file may be out of date for recent versions? I would be more than willing to break my Arch install once again to test a low-res patch for X.Org version 7.2.
Ansa89:
The "allow_low_res.diff" patch was made for pretty old xf86-video-ati drivers.
I will try to update the patch for newer version ASAP.
NightSprinter:
Ah, ok. How would this affect x.org and the XRandR extension? Hasn't it changed the format of modelines recently when it went from 1.1 to the latest versions?
Ansa89:
The patch doesn't affect xorg and/or xrandr; it simply tell the ati driver to accept very low resolutions (the lowest was 320x200 and becomes 160x100).
Ansa89:
Here is the new "low-res" patch for xf86-video-ati 7.2.0 (the old one still there).
