Unable to set correct resolution  in games

Hey,
Tried to start up Jedi Academy to give my 256 graphics card a spin on the new 20" iMac. It's pretty cool, but I can never get the resolution set right. It can only go to 1024x768 instead of 1600xwhatever which is what I want. I know the iMac display is 1680, so is the game just not capable of going any higher? this happens in other full screen apps as well, mostly games. I noticed that if I set my display to 1200 and then try that in the game, it still won't work, it shrinks the display to a fraction of the full screen(hope that makes sense). Any ideas?
Thanks,
Rudz

I've had some curious problems too: I was previously able to run Doom 3 in 1600x1200, but for some reason, lately, the console shows that it can't find a Display Mode, and by default goes to 640x480. I've tried reinstalling the 1,3A patch to no avail. Now I can only go to 1024x768, too.
What's toggling this? Where's the hidden option?
Am curious if this could have been prompted by difficulties with a prebuild of VLC and some Front Row errors I was having...was sthg changed in the Display Modes??

  • T420s - Unable to set high resolution when on external monitor via DP.

    Sorry, let me clarify - 
    Unlike the OP, I do *not* switch back to 50 Hz on battery. However, I am running the NVIDIA beta driver. I installed this because with the Lenovo driver, the machine was not outputiting 2560x1600 over the display port. The highest resolution it would output was 2048 x 1000-something (out of the office now and don't have the exact numbers).
    So yes, with the Lenovo driver the external DP was working, just not outputting the highest resolution. Installing the Nvidia driver fixed that problem. Whether it is related or not, I don't know, but with this driver I do not get 50Hz resolution on the LCD on battery -- everything stays at 60.
    I have not rolled back to the Lenovo driver to test whethe this is reall a driver issue, but suggest that the OP try out the Nvidia driver.
    edit note: Change subject to match description.

    The unable to set high resolution issue on the T420 (not the T420s) was sent to engineering by JameZ just a few days ago. See more here. I suggest you post there or contact JameZ so they know it also occurs on the T420s.

  • Unable to set correct default text code

    To enable accented characters to display properly I need to use Western Latin 1 as the default. When I set this manually in "view" it works but although it is set as the default preference, it always reverts to something else when I open Safari.

    That seems to answer part of my problem. I am not
    sure how to provide an example but it occurs with
    MyYahoo in English, when part of the display is in
    French. I get the black diamonds with question marks.
    If I manually change to ISO Latin 1, the French text
    is correctly displayed. However, when I open Safari
    again, the sme problem reoccurs.
    This would seem to indicate that the MyYahoo English page has html forcing a different encoding than the French text. You can check what it is by doing View > View Source and looking for the "charset" in the first few lines. I suspect it may be UTF-8. Unless Yahoo lets you set the encoding of your page in its preferences somewhere, I do see anything you can do about it.

  • Error NtpClient was unable to set a manual peer. DNS resolution error When using IP address.

    Hya,
    We have been migarting to some new DCs. one of the new DCs now has all the master roles call it DC01.
    when I try and sync/setup NTP on this server as the the authoritive NTP in the doamin I get:
    NtpClient was unable to set a manual peer to use as a time source because of DNS resolution error on '”10.*.*.*,0x1”'. NtpClient will try again in 15 minutes and double the reattempt interval thereafter. The error was: No such host is known. (0x80072AF9)
    I am using the following commands to set NTP up on the server.
    >net stop w32time
    >w32tm /config /syncfromflags:manual /manualpeerlist:"10.*.*.*,0x1"
    >w32tm /config /reliable:yes
    >net start w32time.
    Is anyone aware of what the issue could be?
    Ps one of the old dc can still sync to this site manually if tried.
    cheers Mike

    Hi,
    First make sure your DNS is working properly, then please try this article below:

  • Gnome 3.4.1 unable to set resolutions for a dual-monitor setup

    I use Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller.
    I updated my system to the latest version of everything. Gnome-Shell works, gnome-control-center works, but the Displays icon doesn't (clicking on it does nothing). I even downgraded it to the version 3.2.2 but it didn't help. Is there any other way to set the resolutions?
    Edit: xrandr can do the resolution thing. But problems start appearing:
    [ly@archlev ~]$ gedit
    gedit: symbol lookup error: gedit: undefined symbol: gtk_ui_manager_add_ui_from_resource

    Have you tried XRandR through an xorg.conf file: Here?
    If it doesn't work you can always drop to a terminal and
    sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    to remove the file and reboot and you should be back where you started.
    Don't forget to substitute the VGA1 and HDMI1 ports in that example with your ports as given by
    xrandr -q
    Edit: in the unlikely event you already have an xorg.conf file don't forget to back it up in case you need to restore it instead of the above rm command.

  • Unable to get 1920x1080 resolution [Solved]

    I am trying out a Philips 24" LCD monitor, capable of 1920x1080 at 60Hz. My graphics card is an nVidia FX-5600DT and I am using the nvidia-173xx driver. At present I can only get 1280x1024.

    Maybe under "Screen" put a virtual resolution, like:
    SubSection "Display"
    Viewport 0 0
    Depth 24
    Modes "1280x1024"
    Virtual 1920 1080
    Sorry if you tried this already or isn't what you want. I just remember having this issue on a desktop I used to have (although I no longer have it), and had nVidia graphics that for some reason wouldn't allow the resolution I wanted so I plugged in Virtual and it worked. Probably not the most elegant ways to achieve it but it worked for me and I didn't see any problems. Anyway, worth a try.

    Thanks for the welcome and the reply!
    I looked at KB25882 and my settings are good, so that didn't help.
    I had this problem over a year ago, and someone at RIM found a bit set that shouldn't have been set and fixed it (that is my terminology for what happened).
    I am really looking for a way to contact RIM directly.  I hate going through the mill with my carrier to get it escalated to RIM for resolution......  <sigh>
    Hi mgpainter 
                                Most easiest way to Contact RIM is through your Carrier but as you don't prefer that than there is another way of support called Incident Based Support but just want to inform you that its not free.If you want have a try  BlackBerry Incident Based Support .
    Good Luck

  • Unable to set session in Oracle Portal useing reverse proxy

    I have deployed a reverse proxy (using Oracle HTTP Server) in front of a Oracle Portal Install (version 10.1.2.0.2). The steps followed to set this up came from the following documents:
    Steps mentioned in Section 9.2 Configuring a Reverse Proxy for OracleAS Portal and OracleAS Single Sign-On for a reverse proxy on a Oracle HTTP Server.
    http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_15/core.1012/b13998/variants.htm#ASTED005
    Also performed steps mentioned in -> Section 5.3.7 - Step 7: Enable Session Binding on OracleAS Web Cache of the Oracle® Application Server Portal Configuration Guide 10g Release 2 (10.1.2) -- B14037-03.
    My current (example names shown only)setup details are as follows:
    Reverse Proxy for SSO server (running on internal.oracle.com:7777): proxy.oracle.com:7777
    Reverse Proxy for Portal server (running on internal.oracle.com:7778): proxy.oracle.com:7778
    With the above steps completed, I can successfully use the http://proxy.oracle.com:7777/pls/orasso for login into SSO without any issues.
    Users get authenticated successfully.
    I can also use http://proxy.oracle.com:7778/pls/portal for viewing pages on the portal fine . All self referencing links have also been successfully modified to point to proxy.oracle.com:7778.
    However, an attempt to login in the portal is not successful. Clicking on the 'Login' link successfully redirects to the SSO login page (http://proxy.oracle.com:7777/<login-page>). However, after successful authentication, the success page fails to show up and the user gets shown the initial login portal home page again.
    There are no error messages shown on the screen.But it seems that user session is failing to be initiated/set correctly, as shown by the log file (in $PORTAL_ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/OC4J_Portal/application-deployments/portal/OC4J_Portal_default_island_1/application.log ):

    Hi Chris,
    The begin of the expection stack gives you the reason:
    06/11/03 09:13:59 java.sql.SQLException: The method 'setSavepoint' cant be called when a global transaction is active
    The reason is, that either the whole global transaction must be commited or rollbacked.
    I don't know your actual configuration, but between the methods begin() and commit()/rollback() of the UserTransaction instance, OC4J/OracleAS uses a global transaction (= XA transaction) in your configuration. The state of a global transactions is completely under the control of the application server and several restrictions must be considered. One of them is, that you can't use the method setSavePoint/. E.g. you can't also call the method setAutoCommit(true) in this state, or change the transaction isolation level via setTransactionIsolation(newLevel).
    This is NOT a limitation of the OC4J/OracleAS but is true for ALL application servers.
    P.S. I can successfully set savepoints and rollback to savepoints in weblogic 9.0This means, that WebLogic 9.0 doesn't use a global transaction in this case.
    Because I don't know your configurations (Oracle and WebLogic) I can't say, why the behave different in this situation.

  • Unable to set Guest Network

    I have set up a Wifi Network using one Apple Airport Extreme.
    While me regular WiFi network is hidden and working fine, I am unable to set up the guest network.
    I have enabled the guest network option with a password. under the wireless tab in airport utility
    My internet connection is using DHCP.
    The Router Mode in Network is OFF (Bridge Mode)

    The Router Mode in Network is OFF (Bridge Mode)
    That.....is one of your problems, since the Guest Network option will not operate correctly when the AirPort Extreme is configured to operate in Bridge Mode.
    The other problem that you have.....is that Bridge Mode is actually the correct setting for the AirPort Extreme when you have another router "upstream" on your network......as you do.
    To confirm that you have a modem/router or gateway device on your network........and not a simple modem, which is the device that you really need to enable the Guest Network to operate correctly.....please post back with the make and model number of your existing modem/router or gateway device that is providing your regular Wi-Fi network at the present time.

  • Why are images not displaying at correct resolution in emails?

    I've just upgraded to Windows 7 (64bit).
    Thunderbird is not displaying images at the correct resolution: images that I insert into the body of an email and images used in my signature.
    The images appear larger than they should and pixelated.
    It seems that images are not displaying at the correct resolution inside my emails, whereas in other programs on my machine images are displaying correctly.
    When I insert and image into an email using insert>image, the resulting "Image Properties" window displays the image's dimensions correctly. This confirms my suspicion that the resolution is not displaying correctly inside emails (a lower resolution than elsewhere on my screen, which would explain why the images appear bigger and pixelated).
    I'd appreciate any help in fixing this problem.
    Regards,
    Catsix

    Hi Zenos,
    I've discovered what is causing the problem, but I still need a way to fix it, if possible.
    The cause of the problem is that in Windows 7 Control Panel > Display I have set the size of "text and other items" to 150% (otherwise everything is much too small too read on my screen's recommended resolution of 1920×1080).
    I discovered that Irfan Viewer was also displaying at the incorrect resolution, but I managed to solve that problem by right-clicking on the IrfanView.exe icon and following Properties > Compatibility and selecting "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings".
    I tried the same procedure with Thunderbird, but it made no difference. It is still displaying at the incorrect resolution.
    Any suggestions?
    Regards,
    Catsix

  • How do I set document resolution

    I'm trying to create a pages document that can be exported as a pdf, then converted to an ebook for uploading to an iPad. I've set the document size to 5"x7.5" (2x3 ratio) but can't find a method to set the document resoluton to 120 dpi. When I create the files and convert them (regardless of which PDF quality I use), the pdf file is fine and displays properly, but the conversion splits each page of the pdf file into four separate pages. I'm guessing that's due to the difference in the resolution between 300 dpi and 120. Any ideas?

    > I'm trying to create a pages document that can be exported as a pdf, then converted to an ebook for uploading to an iPad.
    There are several formats for e-paper and e-book interchange, and the several formats are in two main document models. One set of formats follows from ISO 8879 Standard Generalized Markup Language and the other set of formats follows from ISO-IEC 10180 Standard Page Description Language. For instance, the e-Pub and HTML formats follow from ISO 8879 and the PostScript and PDF formats from ISO-IEC 10180.
    > I've set the document size to 5"x7.5" (2x3 ratio) but can't find a method to set the document resoluton to 120 dpi.
    In the PS and PDF family of formats, document co-ordinate space has no resolution (: it is resolution indepedent). Objects in the co-ordinate space can either be resolution-independent (: scalable shapes that only get a resolution when they are rasterised to a specific device, for instance, TrueType typography, Type 1 typography, lines, and boxes), or resolution-dependent, for instance, photography.
    For resolution-dependent objects, applications support two workflows. Some applications such as Apple Pages work on the assumption that you set the resolution in the software you use for exposure correction, other applications such as Adobe InDesign and QuarkXPress work on the assumption that you can do this later when the publication is processed. However, since you can't upsample from a lower to a higher resolution successfully in QuarkXPress or InDesign, it makes no difference if you don't save the resolution you need from the source application software.
    So, begin by selecting the photographs you want, correct the exposures, and save the exposures with the ICC profile for the colour correction space into a named folder at the resolution you want. Then place them in whatever application you want, and save into PDF.
    > but the conversion splits each page of the pdf file into four separate pages. I'm guessing that's due to the difference in the resolution between 300 dpi and 120. Any ideas?
    Since the document co-ordinate space in PostScript version twenty-something in the original Apple LaserWriter of January 1985 is always resolution-independent, it has been possible to tile several pages in the document space onto a single page in the device space of the printer. The number of pages you can tile depends in principle on the tiling geometry in the application that writes the page description program (2-up, 4-up, 8-up, 16-up and so forth), and in practice on the size of the printer format (A4, A3, A3 and so forth).
    If a single page is split into several pages, then either the user has to have asked for this (for instance, when proofing a very large document co-ordinate space by tiling it onto a very small device space for a poster on a LaserWriter), or the user has to have accidentally made the settings for the printing system assume that this is the case. Without knowing what printer or what printer driver you have installed, a suggestion might be that your printer driver is passing the wrong information backwards to the system software. Printer drivers are made by printer manufacturers and may be specific to the printer model. You might have more luck if you ask the printer manufacturer's list. Otherwise, try the formatting option 'for any printer' when you write out your PDF page description program, open the page description program in Apple Preview, and then let the printing system do what it does - hopefully to your satisfaction.
