Thread: Xorg on ATI Radeon 1600 Pro




Xorg on ATI Radeon 1600 Pro

Hello,

I am trying to run X with an ATI Radeon 1600 Pro (RV530
chipset I think) on
FreeBSD 6.1-RC1. 
I am able to run X with xorg 6.9 and the vesa driver but the
refresh rate is
stuck at 60 Hz. 
This card is not supported by the FreeBSD fglrx driver. 
Is there a way to increase the refresh rate (1280x102485Hz
works on my monitor)?

Thanks a lot, 
                        - Olivier

  I assume this is a CRT, since you are asking about refresh
rates.  The
Vesas driver is generic, I don't know how much you can
adjust.  Have you
run xorgcfg? You can try xvidtune to adjust the parameters
until you get
the right refresh rate.  Then save the modeline and put it
in your
xorg.conf.   I you use xorgcfg (graphical configure), it is
easier to
tweak the config.
