None-interlaced modelines for Xorg(Linux)

(1/7) > >>

Lomaxx:
I'm searching for all possible composite modes (Modelines) for use with a PAL-CRT-TV over a vga-scart-cable that I can use in Xorg.
Interlaced modes are out of interest to me because I can't stand that flickering.

By using "lrmc", so far I found working resolutions for my old nvidia-card from "408x288x50.08" up to somewhere at "1296x288x50.08" (stopped searching there as it doesn't make much sense) with increasing steps of 8 for the horizontal resolution (408,416,424,432,....).

EDIT: Note that i used a wrong term in the first few posts from here on: When ever I wrote of "composite modes", I actually ment "progressive modes". Sorry for the confusion, but I don't know much about the different video-modes.

But I wonder if there are composite modes possible with a different height than 288 lines/pixels for use with a PAL-CRT-TV?

Calamity:
Hi Lomaxx, just one question first, by "composite modes" you mean composite sync?

Lomaxx:
Rehi, Calamity.

I probably do mean "composite sync", yes. ;)

I mean those Modelines that do not have the "interlaced" option set at the end. The once I use look like this one:


--- Code: ---    Modeline "408x288x50.08"  7.875000  408 424 464 504  288 293 296 312  -HSync -VSync

--- End code ---

So far I only know of these two types - with and without "interlaced" -  of which i prefer the ones without. But pretty much any mode without flickering is welcome. =)

Try this (got from "umc"):

--- Code: ---    # 640x480x31.60 @ 15.610kHz
    Modeline "640x480x31.60"  12.488320  640 656 720 800  480 484 488 494  -HSync +VSync
--- End code ---
The only thing the monitor (probably) won't like is 31.60Hz as horizontal refresh rate.

Lomaxx:
Hello Ansa89.

I tried your line. That's not excepted at all, although i checked several times that I added it correctly to the two related sections in xorg.conf.

from the Xorg.0.log-file: "[ 22615.326] (WW) NVIDIA(1): No valid modes for "640x480x31.06"; removing."

Because of this it doesn't appear at all in the xrandr-selection-list.
