xorg nvidia resolution

hi archers. I'm having  trouble in setting the correct resolution in fullHD monitor. Though I've set the right modeline and resolution in the xorg.conf the resolution is still 1400x1050. Nvidia settings says the resolution is 1920x1080@50(the one i need), but when i press the info button on monitor it's written there that the resolution is 1400x1050. Here are the configs:
xorg.conf

Re: xorg nvidia resolution

I think what xrandr is telling you is correct. Do you see that the resolution is less than 1980x1080 ?

also, there might be a bug in whatever GUI app you are using to check the resolution.

Forum Rules

There's no such thing as a stupid question, but there sure are a lot of inquisitive idiots !

Re: xorg nvidia resolution

xrandr shows    1920x1080      50.0*  This is what i need. Now the screen is moved down(the lower panel is invicible). And i'm checking the resolution with built in monitor check

Re: xorg nvidia resolution

Try to use an "auto" button on the monitor - it should wiggle your screen a bit and fit it nicely so you can see it all.
