sorry for the double posting, i sent the mail below to the xorg mailing
list and remarked that there are a dedicated list for the geode driver.
because i do not know how the lists are managed i decided to send the
same mail to this list too.

hi

i installed gentoo linux with xorg and the latest xf86-video-geode
driver on an lx 800 embedded board. the geode driver works fine with an
hp 2335 monitor. it recognizes and drives the display with a resolution
of 1920x1200 correctly. but the driver fails to set the right resolution
on the lcd tv samsung 23t51. attached you find the xorg.conf.new and the
Xorg.0.log files. which i created with the X -configure option than
started the X with the created config file. the monitor says "mode not
supported". note the vesa driver starts up with a 1024x768 resolution.
playing around with modelines and options did not solve the problem. i
got either the mode not supported message or a resolution of 1024x768 or
800x600.

for testing the modeline 1360x768 i connected a mini pc with an intel
945 chickset on the samsung monitor. after setting the right display
size and disabling the DDC and EDID i got the desired resolution of
1360x768. i also attached those xorg config and log files with an
extension minipc

note i used the same configuration options for displaysize, modeline and
options with the geode driver without success. it seems that the geode
driver creates a wrong video timing. please can someone help me to solve
the problem.

regards
benny
