[SOLVED] Xorg 'Out of Scan Range, Change Timing Signal'

Hi, all!
I'm just doing a fresh install and having done my first reboot, I am trying desperately to configure X, before installing xfce.
I have an ATI Radeon card and a Sun-GDM5410 21" CRT monitor. Unfortunately, when I do 'startx', I get a message on my monitor saying
'Out of scan range...change timing signal'
I've tried created custom Xorg files instead of letting Xorg work it out, itself. This didn't solve the problem. So as not to further confuse myself, I have rm'd these files and have let X manage itself, again.
I've read and re-read the Xorg and ATI wiki guides, and Google'd around, but I can't get around this.
Any help really appreciated.
Cheers,
Chris.

I did. I think it may be something to do with module that are loaded, possibly kms?
This is what the lsmod looks like from the LMDE installation; I'm using the Radeon driver for my ATI card.

[SOLVED] extremetux racer out of scan range

Hi All,
This has happened with other games as well and on other distros, but I've never been able to cure it. I have a GeForce 6200 with an 22" NEC monitor running @ 1680x1050 nvidia driver 295.20. Start extremetuxracer="out of scan range", I assume that it doesn't like the resolution but I can't find a config file to tweak. This also happens on some other games. My 6 year old boy REALLY wants to play extremetuxracer so if anyone can help, I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks

Easy.
First let's find out how to start it by listing the installed files for the "extremetuxracer" package.
# pacman -Ql extremetuxracer
Actually... let's filter it by anything "bin" so that we don't have to scroll up like a mad hyena:
# pacman -Ql extremetuxracer | grep bin
extremetuxracer /usr/bin/
extremetuxracer /usr/bin/etracer
Good. Now let's have a look in our user dir. Oh, whaddya know, there's an ".etracer" folder in there. With an "options" file inside... Now isn't that convenient? You can either delete this file and it will revert to the 800x600 default, or you can edit it. Your choice.

Screen Resolution is "Out of Scan Range" -- Need Help Re-Setting

My daughter accidentally set her screen resolution on her Mac Mini too high for the Sony monitor we have attached. The screen went blank and then flashed "Out of Scan Range", at which time she then confirmed the higher setting by hitting "return". So now we're stuck - a totally blank screen.
I tried booting in Safe Mode and found that the screen was once again properly set to 1024 x 768, so I thought we had this solved. But when re-starting in regular mode, the screen went blank again ... its as if safe mode is not "saving" the reverted screen size for regular boot mode. My last test was to try to boot from the CD installer, but the only option is to re-install the OS from scratch, something I'd really like NOT to do.
Any other ideas on how to restore the screen settings?

Great News!

Out of scan range when hooked to ethernet?!

Okay, this one has me totally stumped and I can't find anything similar. I just gave my dad an old B&W G3 (that I had been using for the past year) and he had a cable modem installed over the weekend. The ethernet cable from the modem plugs directly into the built-in jack on the back of the Mac. He says that whenever he restarts with the ethernet cord plugged in, his 17" monitor gives him an out of scan range message. If he unplugs the jack and restarts, his original resolution comes back and everything is fine. For the life of me, I can't figure out what one has to do with the other. Got any ideas? This never happened while I was using it with my DSL...
1 GHz G4 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

Start up the computer without the Ethernet jack plugged in and then search the entire hard disk for files which have a name containing com.apple.windowserver. If any files which match this criteria have a series of numbers after windowserver, note down their location and move them to the desktop. A plist file with name containing a series of numbers is only consulted when the computer's MAC address matches those numbers; if no Ethernet cable is plugged in, the computer may be ignoring the file which causes your issue.

Out Of Scan Range on Sony CPD E400

hey all i was chaging the resolution yesturday on the main screen and i told to go to 1920X1200 and thats when i got the out fo scan message from teh moniter. i did a force shut down since i couldnt see what i was doing and i thought it wasnt going to remember the screen size. WRONG. now i have to start up from my ATI card and after startup switch back to the Nvida card and im back to normal. its normal size that i like it at is 1152X870. it works great. but for some reason i didnt get the comfirmation 15 second delay thing. HELP!!! im stumped!

Hi, Christopher -
Since that is a CRT monitor, if it has separate power and video cables, you can try resetting the PRAM in the monitor itself. To do this, power everything down, disconnect the video cable from the Mac. Then turn the monitor on, wait 15 to 20 seconds, then turn it off; wait about 10 seconds, then repeat the cycle, 3 or 4 times. Then reconnect the video cable and boot back up.

Hi,
if the browser shows busy then for sure its not caused by the code snippet you provide. In your code you may want to try and call response complete on the FacesContext to indicate a complete response

I need to change my iCloud email address. I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there. Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account. I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore.

I need to change my iCloud email address. I changed it for my Apple id but I can't log out of iCloud to change it there. Find my iPad is activated so I can't delete my iCloud account. I don't have the email address the iCloud login has anymore so I can't have the password sent there. To sum it up, iCloud has an old email for the account log-in. I don't remember the password for the old email. I have Find My iPad activated so the iCloud account cannot be deleted. And I am already logged out of iTunes & App Store.

If you mean that Find My Phone is asking for a password to a different Apple ID to your current Apple IDand that ID is a previous version of your current ID, not an entirely different one.
This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7, or if you restore from a previous back up made before you changed your details and some other circumstances.
The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID using your current password, you don’t need access to this address if it’s previously been used with your Apple ID, once you have saved these details enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone" and delete the account from your device. It may take a short while to remove the account.
You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, save it once again and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

I am trying to find out if I can change a setting of the calendar in my iPhone. When I view calendar, in month, I would like to view it with the starting day of the week being Monday, not Sunday. Is it possible to make this change? SS

Hello SMEvans32
You can use iCloud to share the Calendar, that way she will always be up to date on that particular section of your work calendar. If you want to use iCloud, I would recommend backing up so you have a safe copy of your data.

IOS5.0.1 constant error "iPhone can not make or receive calls. Restore from iTunes": I get this message and the phone will no longer work (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range). help!

All- I get this message ("iPhone can not make or receive calls. Restore from iTunes" (happend once while on airplain mode and now once while in wifi only area, out of cell range)). iPhone 4. Newest OS. Never happened with old OS! Cycling phone on/off does not help. Ignoring message causes phone to cycle off then on. After first time this happened, I restored. Six days later...same problem! Clearly a new fix is necessary. Suggestions?

I have not tried that...I will look up the process so that I can do it correctly (and still transfer all of my files, contacts, etc). Any suggestions? What is the advantage of restoring as a new device..is this more akin to a complete wipe of a hard drive?

Step 2: Locate to this registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Class\{4d36e96b-e325-11ce-BFC1-08002BE10318}
Step 3: On the left side plane, Right click on the registry {4d36e96b-e325-11ce-BFC1-08002BE10318} and then export it as backup. Just to be safe.
Step 4: Edit the UpperFilters, The value current would be kdbclass vmkbd. Remove the vmkbd. So only value left would be kbdclass.
Step 5: Restart your system and connect your USB wireless reciever. If all is well it will not freeze your windows now.
This worked for me. Hope this works for you. Enjoy..!!

When I attempt to use software Update, and am then prompted for my Apple ID and password, my apple ID is not complete and it is 'grayed out' so I cannot change it.

When I attempt to use Software Update, then go to 'Update All', I am then prompted to enter the password for my Apple ID, however my Apple ID does not come up as complete, and it is 'grayed out' and I cannot change it, therefore it is impossible for me to update my software. How can I change the Apple ID to the correct ID?

You need to delete the application and then download it from the desired Apple ID.

Blank Rows in Table on Range Change After Add

I have a table and to add rows to it, you click on an add button, enter the information and then click save. After clicking save you return to the first page of the table. If you click on the Next option and change the table range, the table only shows the first record (in that new range) but the rest of the lines are all blank with no data. So for example, if my range is 5 and I have 8 records, after hitting the next button I see the 6th record and then 2 more rows but they are blank. How do I refresh the data after the range change to show the rest of the records properly? (Note, this appears to only happen after adding new records).

Since there is a sequence try this url, this will do the job:
