Restore the 1152x864 resolution in 10.3
"There is also some speculation on the web about Iiyama monitors not reporting all the available resolutions."I have Iiyama monitors at work - Os9 If I remember right we had to change the standard VGA cables to more expensive ones to get them to show all the available resolutions . I think it was to do with the frequency of the cables. ---

I already found this hack some time ago. I'm currently running my display at 1472x1104 pixels at 100 Hz.

Could you post it? Just as an example?

It is unlikely that cable quality would affect which resolutions the Mac thinks the monitor can handle.
The device ID signalling is done at a very low frequency, compared to the video itself, on a dedicated set of wires. If your monitor is showing up with the correct model name in the Display menu, the signalling is working fine. On the other hand, if you see something like "Generic", "Unknown", or so on, do a "Detect Displays" and see if it turns up. If it still doesn't, then try a newer cable--your old one might be missing the DDI signalling wires, or they might be broken. This assumes you're using a new-ish (10 year old or less) Plug'n'Play VGA monitor. An old Mac-style monitor with a Mac-VGA cable adapter isn't going to do VGA-type signalling. Macs used a different method for identifying monitors back then. |
