Hello,
I've just upgraded xorg-server to 1.2.0-3 version and I am not able to run X in 1024x768 resolution using nvidia driver. The resolution looks like 800x600. If I use nv drive it runs normaly in 1024x768. I use an old TNT Riva2 video card.
Is that an error with new Xorg or there is something wrong between chair and keyboard?
Thanks a lot.
PS: If anyone has xorg-server-1.1.1-6.pkg.tar.gz and be so kind to upload it anywhere and let me know I would be very pleased.

Not sure but mine works perfectly. I get 1680x1050 Nvidia GeForce Go 7300 on my laptop...

Are you sure your card is supported by driver you installed? Package named "nvidia" contains driver for GeForceFX and later. If package "nvidia-71xx" doesn't solve problem - switch to nv driver and ask crowd on #nouveau if they need tnt2 dumps

I have the 1.1.1-6 pacakge I snagged off a mirror I can upload somewhere. Question did you use the DisplaySize function in your xorg.conf? If so I think it's a known bug. I filed a bug report on the arch site already. I can upload it but need a site to upload to.

Hi, I use nvidia-71xx and it supports my card, with xorg-server 1.1.1-6 it works well.

Thank a lot for your help, I've already find that package. Anyway I don't use DisplaySize function. Once I downgraded tu 1.1.1-6 everything workd well. May be I should upgrade my GPU :-)

You should ask nouveau devs if they need dumps. Free driver will solve much compatibility problems

Hi there,
I'm using xorg-server-1.2.0-3 and nvidia-71xx with
[tester@danger ~]$ cat /proc/driver/nvidia/cards/0
Model: RIVA TNT2 Model 64/Model 64 Pro
IRQ: 9
Video BIOS: 02.05.17.03.00
Card Type: AGP
and it works just fine. Here is the relevant section of xorg.conf:
Section "Device"
Identifier "TNT 64 PRO"
Driver "nvidia"
Option "TripleBuffer" "True"
Option "AddARGBGLXVisuals"
Option "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
Option "AGPMode" "4"
#VideoRam 32768
# Insert Clocks lines here if appropriate
EndSection
Hope this helps.

any pointers???
Thanks for your help
PD: xorg-server-1.2.0-5 is the one i upgrade to.
-----------------------
SOLVED: apparently it was a monitor problem the vertical and horizontal sync were wrong, i ran xorgcfg and then i could used larger resolution values.
