Problems with VIA Chrome9 HC3 than connecting with VGA cable
wonderfulll:
Good day TC community!
I am booting TC on HP Thin Client t5145 (it has VIA Chrome9 HC3 graphic chip).
Than i connect it to monitor or TV through DVI (DVI->HDMI) cable everything works perfectly, but than i use VGA cable, max. i can get is only 1024x786, any other resolution will expand outside the borders of monitor.
Tried to use Xorg with openchrome driver, but it cant detect graphic device.
--- Code: ---(EE) No devices detected.
--- End code ---
Any help is appreciated.
P.S.: the suggestion to use DVI cables isn't really a "real" solution :)

Could be a hw limit w/ vesa?

It might or might not be overridable with a proper driver. There hasn't been a *chrome release in a while, so it is possible your card is not supported in the released openchrome.
I'd suggest building unichrome from git:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~libv/xf86-video-unichrome/

xf86-video-unichrome works!
Thanks a lot :)
will contribute autoconf.tcz and xf86-video-unichrome.tcz next week ;)
curaga:
There already is autoconf.tcz - do you mean an update?
wonderfulll:
hmm, i must have missed it, but it was a useful experience of making .tcz extensions
