Hello,

I am running fedora 14 on a thinkpad x200s with resolution of 1440x900

I would like to know

1) the maximum resolution for an external monitor supported by the graph chip

2) whether it is supported in fedora 14

The output of xrandr is:

Code: Select all

deukalion(pts/2)| xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1440 x 900, maximum 8192 x 8192
LVDS1 connected 1440x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 261mm x 163mm
   1440x900       50.0*+
   1024x768       60.0  
   800x600        60.3     56.2  
   640x480        59.9  
VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DP1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

Is that true? 8192x8192 ??

thanks.

Of course you can output 8192x8192 if your display supports it... as long as the color depth is 4 bit and refresh rate is 1Hz.
For reasonable color depth (24/32bit) and refresh rate (50/60Hz) maximum resolution is likely about 1920x1200 for D-Sub (VGA), 1920x1200 for HDMI and DP when used with a HDMI->DVI or DP->DVI adapters, and possibly up to 2560x1600 (or more) for HDMI and DP when used directly.
