I got a new projector today, Sanyo PLV-Z2000, which is a Full HD pj. It looks like the same problem exists also with 1920x1080@50Hz and 1920x1080@60Hz, but 1920x1080@24Hz is exact. So there really seems to be something fishy about the drivers.
I don't really know where I should even report this kind of problems, since no-one at the Xorg mailing list seems interested. Or every else for that matter. I really thought that Intel would be a better alternative than Nvidia, since the drivers are open and all that... Really, which is better: close sourced drivers but people who every now and then really listen if you have a problem with the drivers, or open source drivers where no-one is interested in any feedback. It looks like the options are either to stick with the one using closed source drivers or learn to code the drivers yourself. Ain't that nice.

Refresh rates of by 0.1 with G35 and Sanyo PLV-Z4 projector
Hi,
I have an Asus P5E-V HDMI motherboard with G35 integrated graphics connected with a HDMI cable to a Sanyo PLV-Z4 projector. I am trying to get 1280x720 work with both 50Hz and 60Hz. But all I can manage is 50.1Hz and 60.1Hz as reported by the projector.
I started with these modelines:
# 1280x720p @ 60Hz (EIA/CEA-861B)
ModeLine "1280x720" 74.250 1280 1390 1430 1650 720 725 730 750 +hsync +vsync
# 1280x720p @ 50Hz (EIA/CEA-861B)
ModeLine "1280x720" 74.250 1280 1720 1760 1980 720 725 730 750 +hsync +vsync
Those are the ones giving me 50.1Hz and 60.1Hz. I have tried to reduce the pixel clock, but it jumps from 50.1 to 49.9 missing 50.0 altogether. I previously used Nvidia 7300GS with the same modelines, same HDMI cable and same projector. And with Nvidia I got 50.0 dead. I have tried both the drivers coming with Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex (2.4.1+patches) and 2.4.2.
In addition, I noticed that not all modes end up in wrong refresh rate. If I select 1024x768@75 I get exactly that:

Here is similar output for 1280x720@60:

I have been struggling with this for almost a month now, trying to get someone to answer to me on the xorg mailing list or at the AVS forums, but no luck there.
So, I'd like to know if anyone else is experiencing the same. Or, if someone had a solution, it would be even better Or if you give any kind of feedback at all, that'd be mostly appreciated.Last edited by phelin; 25 September 2008, 07:10 AM.Tags: None
