Problem with 4:3 resolutions in Widescreen

Hello. My problem is this, I have a notebook dell with an intel x3100 and widescreen. I have the driver xf86-video-intel and everything works just fine, except for this little thing. I have some games that only work with 4:3 resolution, and I want that when the game start and the resolution change, the image doesn't stretch. The funny thing is that it used to work fine first, but now, after install other games (cube 2 and warzone), now the image get stretched every time.
I've tried reinstalling xorg-xserver xorg-xinit and the driver, but its the same. In the man page of the intel driver, there is an option called PANEL_FITTING with the options full_aspect, center and full. Ive tried set it to full_aspect with the command "xrandr --output LVDS1 --set PANEL_FITTING but i get the following:
[claudio@Nootebook avpg]$ xrandr --output LVDS1 --set PANEL_FITTING full_aspect
X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist)
Major opcode of failed request: 148 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 11 (RRQueryOutputProperty)
Serial number of failed request: 27
Current serial number in output stream: 27
[claudio@Nootebook avpg]$
Has anyone any idea of how can I fix this??
By the way, I already tried uninstalling the games with their dependencies but nothing

Problems with the display resolution on Android

We have a problem with the display resolution on our Google Nexus 7 (2013) and our Multi-Folio-App. If we watch an article inside our published Multi-Folio-App, the article does not use the full screen of the tablet. But when I look the article inside the content viewer, it use the full screen of the tablet. For your information: We use the resolution of 1280 x 800 and the tablet has the highest resolution of 1920 x 1200.
However, under iOS it works without problems. We use the iPad 4 (2048 x 1536) with the article resolution of 1024 x 720. Do you have any idea what we can do? Under this post, you can find two screenshots which discribe the problem.

Scaling was introduced in v28:
from http://helpx.adobe.com/digital-publishing-suite/help/whats-new-release.html#what_s_new_in_ this_release
Content on Android devices scaled up
In previous releases, smaller renditions in Android apps were not scaled up, causing both letterboxing and pillarboxing. With v28 AIR-based Android apps, smaller renditions are now scaled up proportionally.

Macbook Pro late 2013 - problem with login screen resolution

Hi,
I've got problem with login screen resolution, after upgrade to Yosemite. I use the 4rd resolution (last one) on my Mac Pro (late 2013), and after restart login screen is always on optimum mode... But it's only about the login screen.
Do you know how can I fix it? I would like to have the same resolution on every screen.
thx in advance

I Reformatted the CF card on the new computer   it works fine now on the new Mac Pro
Interesting point about the low power of the usb ports   I had to deal with all devices ejecting them selves when the mac pro was idle or slept Drobo needed a Firmware update and another drives needed me to change the sleep setting or the Mac Pro   to never and i also had to deploy a script to write to each device ever minute,   this kind of sold the problem with external Hard drives.   I wonder if the lowering power to a CF card   can eject it in a manor which would make the computer think it is corrupt.
I have looked at buying a power usb Hub    but seems only one or two of the ports are powered.
Seems to be a bit problem with the mac pro especially as everything has to be connected externally
Will assume the Firewire Connector does not work.

Having problem with "artwork size & resolution exceeds the max that can be rasterized"

Hi all,
Ok, I created a 162.7" x 90.6" document (artboard) for an exhibition display I'm designing. The document was created using all the defaults - i think this is where i went wrong. Illustrator is now telling me that "the combination of artwork size and resolution exceeds the maximum that can be rasterized" after i open the document and when i try to add a drop shadow to anything.
Other than some vector graphics i created in illustrator, I only have 3 180ppi and 4 300ppi photos tranfered right off the photograpers camera.
I selected :
1. "Print Document" from the initial splash window.
2. I entered the artboard size, bleed and left the "Raster Effects" setting to "High (300ppi)"
I think leaving the Raster Effects setting at 300ppi is where the problem is.
Do i have to create a new document or can i fix the existing one?

nados you are a little confused that's all I think things are ll right and you are probably set to go with out going to Photoshop.
1. Your file is probably fine as is
2. Make certain you images are linked and not embedded
3. Your Images are probably ok as far as they are for the the specs required do not lower the resolution just make certain they are linked.
You may have to reimport them and in the place dialog make certain link is checked.
4. The Raster Image Effects setting is fine leave it as is.
5. The jpegs are fine lee your images as is if that was what was supplied to you and they look clean.
6. When saving the file save as .AI format and in the AI save as option dialog uncheck include linked files
(you will send them the jpegs as well as the AI file.)
7. Send the images in what ever format they are now since that is jpeg leave it be just make certain the dimensions are the same as is being used in the document at 100%.
8 Make Certain you select the text and got Type> Create Outlines before saving the file.
9 Do not export the file to any other format.
10 Send the printer production house the AI file and the Jpegs you will be fine.
You should not have a problem with this file.

T520 problems with external monitor resolution

Hi,
I am on permanent hold right now waiting for a Lenovo tech support rep, so I thought I would just post my issue here. I just purchased a Dell ultrasharp U2713HM monitor and am trying to connect it to my Lenovo T520. Sometimes it sees the monitor and sometimes it doesn't, but that isn't my main issue. The monitor is supposed to be 2560x1440, but all of the resolution settings are greyed out. I know the Lenovo can support it because my last monitor was a Samsung SyncMaster that supported 2560x1440, and it was beautiful (beautiful until the monitor blew up).
I have been on the phone with both Dell and Lenovo, and so far nobody has been able to resolve the issue. I upgraded the NVIDIA graphics card driver (NVS4200M) to the most recent version (310.90) as suggested by Dell, and I switched out the VGA cable for the DVI-D cable (connected to a Dual Link Adapter), as suggested by Lenovo. It stlil isn't working.
I could use any suggestions. I am not techy at all, so this is pretty frustrating. Thank you!!
Solved!

Okay, another update. I changed the graphics thingy in the bios from NVIDIA optimus to discrete based on someone's suggestion, but that did not work, either with the displayport cable OR the dual link adapter. I also just spoke with the Dell tech, and he basically told me to take it to a shop to see if they could figure it out. In other words, I am out of ideas, and I think I will just return the monitor unless anyone out there has any other suggestoins! Thank you!
Just to be clear, are you saying you have a cable with DisplayPort on both ends and your tried that with the default BIOS setting (Optimus), then Discrete, then Integrated and it didn't work on either of those three settings?

Problem with imported photo resolution

When I import a photo either by email or application Briefcase import, the resolution is very poor. I have tried emailing or Briefcase-ing the photo either at original high resolution or a cropped 640 x 480 resolution, with the goal of using the photo as a wallpaper. When I look at it as an email attachment on my Touch, it looks great, but when I open it in the Photo application, it is VERY pixelated, looking like it was downsampled at 72dpi, or less. Is there something simple I am missing to save the higher resolution version that I see in the mail application to the Photo application so I can use it for wallpaper?
Thanks for any suggestions,
Paul

Thanks, roaminggnome, touch is up to date, itunes is not up to date, as apple just released 8.1
I will install when at the computer I sync from later today and retry. I also haven't tried installing the photo by a cable sync, only by the pic received wirelessly...so I'll try that too.

Problems with effects ans resolution

Hello,
I try to make my personal site but I have some problems I can't find
First, I want to make a transition, here's my code :
<code>

     <mx:State name="AgdParcours">
          <mx:SetProperty target="{BoxParcours}" name="height" value="317"/>

     </mx:Transition>
</mx:transitions>

Actually, the effect looks good but there's a bug I can't explain... Here's the result when I click on the button in the Parcours Box in the bottom right :
There's a transition but it looks bad and after the transition it looks like this :
Well the transition looks good here. But do you know why is there this problem apparently from the box
Secondly, as you can see in the second picture, there's a problem of resolution. Here's my code of my Canvas :
<code>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="1000" height="1314">
</code>
And I can put any numbers in Width and height, it's the same result. Do you know why ?
Thank you

What do you mean by auto-layout ?
Well, Indead I use :
<code>
<mx:Canvas xmlns:mx="http://www.adobe.com/2006/mxml" width="1000" height="1314"
creationComplete="parcoursData.send()" >
</code>
What I have to put instead of this Canvas ?

Problem with Background Fill Resolution

I set the background on my master page using an image. However, on each of my pages and with each successive subpage, the image is magnified and loses resolution. How do I fix this?

Make sure you set the pattern to 'original size' sometimes it will pick other options like scale to fit etc. If that is not the case then it could be a Muse bug.

Problem with DNS resolution

Hi All,
I am facing a strange problem with the name resolution in mac os x. I have a Lan with a cisco switch and a cisco router that serves as DHCP and DNS server.
In the router I have setup some static host names with the relevant IPs in the local Lan. When ever I try to ping or browse, from within OS X, using the names, I get "unknown host" error. The problem is only with the static hosts I have setup. The strange part is that nslookup and dig give back the correct IP as it is assigned in the Cisco router. When I use my iPhone or iPad everything works fine.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Barsam, did you solve this issue?
I have something similar happening to me, I can ping, traceroute, nslookup even use entourage to send and receive emails, but can browse the web with any browser (safari, firefox and chrome)
Last night farefox was working, today I upgrade to the latest firefox version and now firefox stop working saying that can resolve the name, the same error as safari and chrome
I flush the cache, reboot, manually enter DNS, change DNS servers to public ones, but still can't surf the web

Problem with SAP Screen

Not sure if this is the correct forum.
Okies, a user of mine has a problem with her SAP screens. It seems that she can't view the full screen of CJ20N She has to drag the window bigger to be able to see the content. She uses this window in a split monitor view, i.e. some of the applications are displaying on the laptop window while other applications display on the monitor.
Details of her SAPGUI:
Release 640 Final
File version: 6404.4.16.1015
Build: 774474
Patch Level : 16
Do note that her primary monitor (notebook) is always set to 1280x800 and the secondary monitor is set to 1024x768. Anyone encounter this problem before?

HT1338 I have a problem with the aspect ratio of photos as they appear on iPhoto. They are not correct. On the original photo people were fat and squat. I tried rotating and they became long and narrow. Neither correct.

Sounds more like a problem with your Display Resolution than iPhoto.
Go to: Apple / System Preferences / Displays and in the Resolutions list select,
1280 x 800 if you have a 13" MacBook Pro
1400 x 900 if you have a 15" MacBook Pro
1920 x 1200 if you have a 17" Macbook Pro

Fatal problem with screen going bezerk

Hi all
I have a serious issue with my MBP-12 (not the newest version) that goes like this: At work, I use an external monitor (via displayport) with a different resolution. My MBP is ”closed” and called up soley by the connection. When I leave for home, I simply unpluck the cables (power, usb, displayport) and the MBP hypernates. When I come home, I open up the mac and it would normally just adjust screen resolution and be ready.
However: Lately, I get a serious fault here. The screen goes bezerk and shows all kinds of dots. Even if I close the screen again, it will not come back to normal. I have to pull the emergency break and power off totally and the reboot.
I am unsure if this has to do with the new Mt. Lion. I have upgraded to that.
Or if it has to do with a hardware fault – a loose connection or what ever.
So:
- is this a known issue – that the MBP (perhaps due to Mt. Lion) has problems with switching between resolutions?
- or could the be a hardware fault here?

Problem with nameresolution

After upgrading from Lion to Mountain Lion, I noticed there is a problem with the name resolution. I am able to browse only one web site at a time, while the other doesn't work.
1. The same internet connection works well with my laptop (Windows), Ipad and Iphone.
2. There is no firewall setup.
3. Gatekeeper is disabled.
Checked with my ISP and they did not see any problems.
I am able to download files, this works at good speed. Is this a bug?
Thanks.

To add more details..
I tried to ping my router, it fails.
Did a direct cable connection, it is still the same.

Problem with T400 and external monitor (1920x1200 resolution)

Hi there
My laptop:
ThinkPad T400 2767-C99* (graphics is: ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3470 256MB / X4500MHD (Switchable Graphics)), OS is WinXP
I just installed the newest video driver from the lenovo page (which also installs "ATI catalyst")
Externale Monitor:
I just bought a Samsung SyncMaster 2443FW, 24" TFT monitor with maximum resolution 1920x1200
Problem:
Monitor works great with my newer T400s and my old Acer laptop. However, with my T400 (described above), I can't make the monitor use the 1920x1200 resolution. However, all the other resolutions look ugly so I need it to work with 1920x120
- If i change the resolution by rightclicking on the Windows XP desktop (and then properties=>settings) and set the screen resolution there to 1920x1200, then my monitor only used a lower resoltion (1440x900) and I get a scrolling effect as I move my pointer across the screen
- if I use ATI catalyst software to set the resolution, I can only chose smaller resolutions (it does no go up to 1920x1200)
Questions
Is that a hardware (maybe the graphic card does not support 1920x1200) or a software problem (maybe some problem with the driver) or just a matter of setting?
What can I do?
Help would be very much appreaciated!
*Original description: Based 2767-2JG: T9550(2.66GHz), 4GB RAM, 250GB 5400rpm HD, 14.1in 1440x900 LCD, 256MB ATI Radeon 3470HD, CDRW/DVDRW, Intel 802.11agn wireless, Bluetooth, Modem, 1GB Ether, UltraNav, Sec Chip, FPR, Camera, 9c Li-Ion, DOS License

Thank you for your answer.
I have already installed the newsest drivers from Lenovo. I don't really see why I should install a non-official driver. I am convinced that it must work somehow with the official driver.
Kind regards
there are plenty of instances where the official driver have glitches... just look around the forum to find instances of which.... while official drivers maybe better in most instances, there are always the odd case where it doesn't work as well as it should. If they perfectly out of box, then there would never need to be multiple revisions and updates.
