Xorg and framebuffer issues with high resolutions

So I got a nice shiny new 23" 1080p Asus VH236H monitor. Unfortunately, it's not turning out to be as great I was hoping, possibly due to the Geforce FX5200 bios, but I'm not sure. I think these issues are probably related, so I put them in the same thread.
First, the console: vesafb, uvesafb, and nvidiafb all fail at delivering a useable framebuffer greater than 1280x1024. vesafb flat out denies anything beyond 795 (0x31B). uvesafb and nvidiafb will fall back on 1280x1024@75Hz, which causes text to flash all over the screen and requires a reboot to remedy. It doesn't matter if I feed fbset the exact timings X uses, they'll still fallback on 1280x1024. `hwinfo --vbe` has this to say about hardware support:

Supposedly, the framebuffer should be able to support 1400x1050, but I can't get it, possibly because it's not listed as monitor supported. Does this mean that I'm stuck with a 1280x1024 max res?
This brings me to my next problem... Xorg. On my old monitor, I liked the nvidiafb-fbdev driver combination because I could quickly switch between X and console, and so long as I had the proprietary nvidia gl libraries installed, X ran smoothly. (never got the nv driver fbdev option to function with stability) Obviously, this is impossible now. I can't get nv to run at a resolution greater than 1280x1024. With the proprietary drivers, max resolution is 1440x900; however, if I disable max pixel clock checking, support for 1680x1050 and 1920x1080 is added.
Now, this is where things get serious. If I switch back to console after starting X with NoMaxPClkCheck, I get an out of range message from my monitor. I can freely restart/switch back to X and everything is fine there, but the console is unuseable until reboot.

Brett,
When working with the file that has many vector points. Try working in Outline mode if you can and if it works for you. Keep in mind with all the complex vectors the screen has to redraw which is taking up application memory when you move or update the object/drawing. If you can try resize the graphic to a smaller size to work with it then enlarge it back to normal size when you are ready for the final version of the file.
It may help.
Thanks
Scott

  • Applescript to take a folder of pdfs and create jpgs with high resolution

    Hello,

  • How to copy objects from Pages (5.5.1) and paste it into Photoshop as a vector smart object with high resolution?

    I recently have bought a new Macbook Pro (Version 10.10.1) with the OS X Yosemite. The computer comes with the new Pages (version 5.5.1).
    Here is the problem: I like to create artwork using the shapes on Pages. Previously, on my old mac, I used Pages 4.3 to create objects, which I would copy then paste to Photoshop and it would become a vector smart object. However, in the new Pages (version 5.5.1), when I copy objects, they would appear on Photoshop as instead, a layer and it would not be in full resolution.
    Also, I know there is nothing wrong with the Pages file itself because I have converted the document to PDF form and it is high resolution when inserted into Photoshop that way.
    Does anyone know how I can copy individual objects from Pages (5.5.1) and paste it into Photoshop as a vector smart object with high resolution as I have done before?
    Thanks!

    Oh, well if you don't actually need vector objects then it looks like this is possible. As I said earlier, Pages is putting a PNG on the clipboard. I tested it and it does paste into Photoshop as a transparent layer, because I can see the transparent background of the pasted PNG graphic if I either turn off all layers behind it in Photoshop, or if I start a new Photoshop document to paste into but make sure I choose Transparent for the Background Contents in the New Document dialog.

  • Replace photos with higher resolution versions?

    A professional photographer sent me a DVD with about 1,000 photos on it from an event I hosted.  I imported them all into iPhoto and made a couple of photo books out of them (but didn't yet get them printed).  I noticed the resolution wasn't what I expected, so the photographer sent me a new DVD with higher resolution versions.  Same filenames.  Is there any way to import the new versions into iPhoto, replacing the old ones?  Ideally they would appear in the photo books, too!  I'd hate to have to spend hours recreating what I did.
    Thanks!

    I don't think so, iPhoto is designed to prevent "collisions" between similar file names, so you can't just import them. You would have to do major surgery to the iPhoto Library, which is not a good idea. And still might not work.
    I think you should just re-import and start over.

    The file gets saved in the desired format but the resolution is always 72 DPI. Is there something i'm missing while exporting the file with higher resolution?
    Please help..
    Thanks

    Why are you adding a resolution value to the save command?
    It doesn't take or understand a resolution value.
    You need to set the resolution on the document first, then save.

  • Slow performance with high resolution external monitor

    Hello,
    I recently bought HP EliteBook 840 G1, i7-4600U, 8gb ram, HD intel graphics 4400, 256GB SSD.
    Everything would be fine, but when I connect my 30" Dell monitor with 2560x1600 resolution as an external monitor, the performance of the computer drops significantly to the point where it becomes unconvenient to work with programs that require more resorces.
    I understand that it might be due to limitations of the hardware (most probably graphic card is too weak ? ), but still I'd like to ask if there is anything I could do to boost the performance of HP Elitebook with high resolution external monitor.

    Hi, you should use renderMode = gpu in your application descriptor xml file, especially for latest android devices. But gpu is not a good idea for old devices, so you may also try renderMode = direct.
    Honestly, I don't think those android devices made in china have good performance, especially gpu.

  • Performance issues for iOS with high resolution.

    I made an app with a resolution of 480x320 for iOS. It works quite well.
    I then remade it with a resolution of 960x640. In AIR for iOS settings I set Resolution to "High".
    The app looked great, however there was a noticeable drop in performance.
    The app functioned the same way as the original lower resolution app. but it was lagging.
    Has anyone else had this problem?
    Am I doing something wrong?

    With my game, I had around 60fps on the 3GS, and around 50 on the iPhone 4, with the high settings. I got around 10 fps extra by using: stage.quality = StageQuality.LOW;
    Air 2.6. I tried with Air 2.7, but it seems like that command can't be used there (?)

  • Issues with 1920 resolution, fonts look tweak and broken

    i just bought a new led display, wich allows 1920x1080 resolution.
    With this resolution fonts looks like tweak and broken, very annoying.
    Firefox is the only application that suffers this problems. Opera and Internet Explorer looks perfect, and also all the others applications installed.
    Clear Type option is activated, and works perfectly.
    The only way to solve the probleme is to reboot firefox and execute in safe mode.
    I have no extensions nor personal preferences (bookmarks either). I've just uninstalled Firefox with all personal data and reinstalled. And the issue stays.
    In safe mode all looks perfectly.
    I'm running windows 7 64bits
    Graphics: RADEON HD 6950

    I did a test using Chunk and a few other fonts that are similar plus one I know works well and the fonts that are similar to Chunk tend to look very pixelated when viewed in Firefox. Look fine in Chrome and Explorer...
    This might be something that the techs at Adobe (Type Kit) would have to look at.
    I posted an image, but not sure if it shows the problem that well.

  • Having Issues with High CPU Usage with fluxbox & pekwm

    Greetings,
    I have searched for this issue and it seems that something similar has happened in the past with an old xorg, and it seems that someone is having a similar issue that they can point to kde as being the culrpit. However in my case, this is a fresh install and is not using any kde libs. Please allow me to explain the issue.
    The power supply on my main computer finally gave out, and being incredibly poor at the moment I can not yet replace it. So, I pull out an older computer that I had once set up for my kids, but took it away from them when they were abusing it. I always make backup dvds and such monthly so I didn't have to worry about any lose of data, however I desired to keep my larger hard drives from my main computer. After testing to ensure that the hard drives were fine, I did some minor surgery, and did a fresh install of arch linux onto my back up computer. Since I prefer pekwm, I installed pekwm as my wm of choice, and outfitted it quickly with mpd+sonata, firefox, pcmanfm, and tint2. Then I rebooted into my pekwm 'desktop'.
    It was running sluggish. Firefox was easily maxing the cpu up and beyond 100% and it felt ten times worse than any heavy DE I used in the past. I checked to make sure I had the right video driver installed. As this computer runs a 64MB nVidia GeForce2 MX with TV out video card, I searched nvidia's page and the arch wiki, noting that the driver needed is nvidia-96xx. Well I had already suspected that during install, and thus had installed such driver. I double checked my xorg.config and it has the right driver listed.
    So I checked out some lighter browsers. I tried both Midori and Iron (which is similar to Chrome but without google spyware or whatever). Well both run better than firefox, Midori being the lightest one, but Iron quickly being my favorite. Still, the problem remained. Moving windows caused cpu spikes, opening more than one tab, or more than one program caused cpu spikes and the computer to slow down and sputter, freezing at times.
    So I tried out another wm, fluxbos, which is another of my favorites. Seemed somewhat better but only fractionally, which I consider odd because pekwm has always seemed snappier than fluxbox to me in the past. Running lxtask (still mouse dependent, sorry lol), I was able to take note of the following...
    FLUXBOX
    lxtask 6% CPU usage average
    PCManFM 5% CPU Average
    Fluxbox 1% to 2% cpu usage
    gksu 3% cpu usage
    pidgin 3% to 7% cpu usage
    firefox up to 62% cpu usage
    midori up to 38% cpu usage
    iron up to 50% cpu usage
    mpd 11% cpu uage
    Xorg (with no window movement) 2% cpu usage
    Xorg (moving windows around) up to 80% cpu usage
    PEKWM

    So what I am wanting help with is finding the solution to the cpu usage so that I can use this computer at least until I can afford a new power supply or whatever. I am open to any good suggestions, though I must state I am not really interested in tiling wm's at the moment. I am just not a true minimalist.
    Thanks in advance for any and all help. I understand that there is a lot of info in this post, but it is my hope that with this info the problem can be solved. If there is info I didn't provide that is needed, please let me know.

    also check that you have
    session.screen0.opaqueMove false
    in your .fluxbox/init  this will probably help a bit if it is currently true,

  • When will Muse work with high resolution systems?

    I just upgraded my PC to a Yoga 3, pushing an ASUS 2560x1440 monitor. After a new download/install, launching Muse on either the laptop's screen (3K) or the monitor results in the GUI's menus and commands being so tiny they are unusable. So far, Muse is the only application that I'm seeing this with. MS Office, browsers, and numerous other programs all work fine.
    When I contacted support, they said "Muse isn't ready for high resolution systems," and had me drop the resolution down to "fix" the issue. Not what I spent all this money to do.
    When I asked when Muse would be ready, they recommended that I post that question for the community. So here I am.
    This all seems odd to me, because my old machine was a MacBook pro with retina display and the same monitor - Muse worked just fine there.
    Question posted.

    The simple and only really honest answer is: When it's ready. Adobe never makes and "let's look into the crystal ball" statements about its software.
