Hi all,
I have a motherboard with an intel G45 chipset.
When I try to launch an X server with no connected monitor it fails with
(other outputs are ignored according to my xorg.conf) :
(II) intel(0): Output HDMI-2 using monitor section Sharp Aquos
(**) intel(0): Option "PreferredMode" "1080p"
(**) intel(0): Option "Enable" "true"
(II) intel(0): I2C bus "HDMIDDC_C" initialized.
(II) intel(0): HDMI output 2 detected
(II) intel(0): EDID for output HDMI-2
(II) intel(0): Output HDMI-2 enabled by config file
(WW) intel(0): Unable to find initial modes
(EE) intel(0): Output HDMI-2 enabled but has no modes
(EE) intel(0): No valid modes.
I have read how to setup dual head at
http://intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html and my xorg.conf relevant
sections look like this :
Section "Device"
Identifier "Intel GMA X4500HD"
Driver "intel"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
VendorName "Intel"
BoardName "G45 [Intel GMA X4500HD]"
Option "AccelMethod" "EXA"
Option "ModeDebug" "true"
Option "monitor-VGA" "ignore"
Option "monitor-HDMI-1" "ignore"
Option "monitor-HDMI-2" "Sharp Aquos"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "ignore"
Option "ignore" "true"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Sharp Aquos"
ModeLine "1080p" 148.50 1920 2448 2492 2640 1080 1084 1089
1125 +hsync +vsync
VertRefresh 23-61
HorizSync 15-68
Option "PreferredMode" "1080p"
Option "enable" "true"
EndSection
Is there a way to force the driver to use the 1080p mode even when no
monitor are connected?
thanks in advance.
regards,
