Tuesday November 25, 2008 Solaris Thinkpad T61p projector configuration
The
default Nvidia driver that is being shipped with Solaris
Express/OpenSolaris distro doesn't allow you to switch to 1024x768
resolution for Thinkpad T61p. Most of the LCD
projectors works with "1024x768" resolution. Add the following
lines to Nvidia device section in /etc/X11/xorg.conf for 1024x768 resolution.
---
Option "UseEdidFreqs" "False"
---
I have attached xorg.conf file for reference. Tested this on Thinkpad T61p which comes with Nvidia Quadro FX 570M chipset.
For projector setup. Copy the xorg.thinkpad.t61p.projector.conf to /etc/X11/xorg.conf and restart the gdm or CDE login . You can remove/move the file once you are done with the projector setup.
