I Xorg Team !
I'm the network administrator of a french high school and I need the
generate my Linux client display configuration by command line.
To configure the display, Gnome use a monitors.xml file where the
randr configuration is stored. I know now how to generate the majority
of the entries of this file except the "rate" parameter :
<mode>
<width>1440</width>
<height>900</height>
<rate>59.887443542480469</rate>
</mode>
A rate=60 is not accepted by Gnome. It's seems that I need at least 3
good digits after the dot to make the file work ( rate=59.887 works ).
But the xrandr command give me only 2 digits :
~# xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2704 x 1050, maximum 8192 x 8192
DP-1 connected primary 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis
y axis) 256mm x 192mm
...
1440x900 59.89
...
Does someone know how to get this precise refresh rate value from randr ?
Thanks.
Regards,
Baptiste.
