Are you using Core or CorePure64?

Are you using Xvesa, Xfbdev or Xorg-7.7?

Have you looked for the relevant information in the faq, wiki and tinycore book?

Are you using the 32-bit version of tinycorelinux or the 64-bit version?

Which extension are you using for the graphical user interface - Xvesa, Xfbdev or Xorg-7.7?

You can find the above information with the following commands:

Code: [Select]

You are using Xvesa - if xsetup.sh does not show the resolution you are looking for then you can try the Xorg-7.7 extension instead of Xvesa.

xf86-video-ati is the correct driver, but it is unloaded for some reason - perhaps you need the graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 extension to be loaded or, if that doesn't help, Xorg-7.7-3d.

Note that using the amd drivers and firmware is not going to work and using the TinyCorePure64 iso instead of the CorePure64 iso does not help either.

Try CorePure64-10.1 + graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 + Xorg-7.7 + xf86-video-ati + flwm + wbar + aterm

Xorg is still unloading both the ati and modesetting drivers - maybe because you have the boot code "vga=791", which probably means you are still using TinyCorePure64 instead of CorePure64.

Do you have the firmware-radeon extension installed?

Edit: did you try Xorg-7.7-3d?

Title: Re: [ HOW TO ] Resolution Changing ?!
Post by: Juanito on June 16, 2019, 04:38:05 AM

With my hardware, Xorg-7.7 tries to load drivers in the following order:

Code: [Select]

[    15.024] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
[    15.024] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 1
[    15.024] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 2
[    15.024] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 3

If I do not use the xf86-video-intel extension, then I see the following:

* Xorg-7.7 - uses vesa driver
* graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 + Xorg-7.7 - uses modesetting driver

From your results it looks like you are not using graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 + Xorg-7.7?

The Xvesa tiny x server extension is 32-bit only - the Xorg vesa driver (xf86-video-vesa) can be both 32-bit and 64-bit.

Title: Re: [ HOW TO ] Resolution Changing ?!
Post by: neonix on June 17, 2019, 01:18:31 PM

What is the difference between modesetting and vesa?

Title: Re: [ HOW TO ] Resolution Changing ?!
Post by: curaga on June 17, 2019, 01:20:25 PM

Modesetting uses the kernel KMS driver, while vesa uses the vesa bios. Neither has any acceleration. Vesa is more universal, but more limited in the resolutions supported.

edit: Well, modesetting does support 2d-over-opengl acceleration if your card has good 3d support, and you have drivers installed.

Hello xor
You tire too easily...

I think you'd be better off making a script to accomplish the task then exit to shell and execute your script to run all the commands

Create a shell script, call it "getXorg"
At the command prompt in you home directory enter:

Add your commands

Code: [Select]

echo "tce-load -wi graphics-4.19.10-tinycore64 Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-ati firmware-radeon flwm wbar aterm" >> getXorg
Make executable

Code: [Select]

sudo chmod +x getXorg
then exit to shell and enter ./getXorg to run the script

Code: [Select]

./getXorg
Depending on what else you might want to accomplish you might just want to start X

Yes, you can download many extensions on the same command line.

If you are already in the gui, do not load the graphics-KERNEL extension.

In the gui:

Code: [Select]

$ tce-load -wil Xorg-7.7 xf86-video-ati firmware-radeon flwm wbar aterm
Next, exit to the console prompt, then:

Code: [Select]

$ tce-load -wil graphics-KERNEL
$ startx

Note that while you are still experimenting, it would be much easier to install CorePure64 to a usb stick and boot from that.

previously it went up to 1360 resolution. I think the system automatically ignores the VGA input priority because I only installed ALSA-config instead of ALSA at the first installation configuration point. I think.

Hi, xor. Why do you need that particular resolution? The xrandr tool may help you achieve what you want while using one of the available resolutions. xrandr can stretch, rotate, move, and otherwise tweak the graphics in all kinds of clever ways.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xrandr

P.S. I experienced similarly stubborn resolution-related issues in the past. In one case, the problem was caused by the new kernel and/or kernel modules because the newer kernel and modules were the only difference between my "before" and "after" scenarios. So it's conceivable that the reason you have this issue in TC11 but not in TC10 has something to do with the newer kernel in TC11.

I realize that this problem is not just a TCL special error.

Before creating the iso file with ezremaster; I know that I have learned to add and remove files to the iso file.

I could not find the directories that should be standard in the [Xorg-7.7-3d.tcz] packages. !
If you create the missing folder and the file "xorg.conf", I think there will be fewer possible errors and problems.

monitor is working but it cannot transmit digital resolution values to linux.
so I cannot achieve the desired high resolution.

the system works at 1024x768.

Post by: GNUser on July 29, 2020, 09:37:19 AM

Hi, xor. I don't know what kind of setup you have, but note that If your computer is connected to more than one monitor (e.g., a laptop that has its own screen and is also connected to a high-definition external monitor) and the monitors are in "mirror" mode, then the maximum resolution the computer can output will be determined by the least capable monitor.

Please run xrandr without arguments to see the names of all the monitors connected to your computer. For example, when my laptop is connected to an external monitor via VGA cable, running xrandr shows two connected monitors: LVDS1 and VGA1.

xrandr has the handy --auto flag, which automatically selects the highest supported resolution.

So, in my example, to turn off my laptop's monitor (LVDS1, which supports only up to 1280x800) so that I can use the external monitor (VGA1) at its maximum resolution (1920x1080), I'd run this command:

Code: [Select]

$ xrandr --output LVDS1 --off --output VGA1 --auto
Now when I run xrandr without arguments I'll see that LVDS1 is off and the selected resolution (marked with asterisk) for VGA1 is the highest of all the ones that are listed as supported.

The "edid" data of the monitor, which previously worked without any problems at 1360x768, has been corrupted, so it has suddenly fallen to 1024x768 values.

Even other operating systems ask users how many inches of the monitor are, then offer their standard resolutions according to the standard monitor size.

I don't know when xrandr was developed,
but he has not developed a facilitating scenario!

the first script that comes to mind right now
"vga1 1360x768 @ 60" (in the form.)
When I enter the command, I wish everything would be exactly what I wanted!

even this problem is so common
Even HDMI edid data gets corrupted in this respect

H7p = HDMI 720p
H1k = HDMI 1080; switch to resolution
H4k = HDMI 4K; switch to resolution
H8k = HDMI 8K; switch to resolution
H16k = HDMI 16K; switch to resolution
It should be.

a script should be created on this subject
millions of people with the same problem
naturally millions of unnecessary waste of time

Out of interest, how do you know the edid data has been corrupted?

Have you tried the updated xf86-video-ati extension?

Hi, xor. I don't know what kind of setup you have, but note that If your computer is connected to more than one monitor (e.g., a laptop that has its own screen and is also connected to a high-definition external monitor) and the monitors are in "mirror" mode, then the maximum resolution the computer can output will be determined by the least capable monitor.

Please run xrandr without arguments to see the names of all the monitors connected to your computer. For example, when my laptop is connected to an external monitor via VGA cable, running xrandr shows two connected monitors: LVDS1 and VGA1.

xrandr has the handy --auto flag, which automatically selects the highest supported resolution.

So, in my example, to turn off my laptop's monitor (LVDS1, which supports only up to 1280x800) so that I can use the external monitor (VGA1) at its maximum resolution (1920x1080), I'd run this command:

Code: [Select]
$ xrandr --output LVDS1 --off --output VGA1 --auto
Now when I run xrandr without arguments I'll see that LVDS1 is off and the selected resolution (marked with asterisk) for VGA1 is the highest of all the ones that are listed as supported.

I hope that helps with your issue.

P.S. If you are sure that--even with proper care as above--you are not achieving the monitor's maximum resolution, then take a look here:

There should be an option in the setting of your physical monitor.
Perhaps you can align it manually instead of pressing the auto-align button

Hi xor
You can stop posting those xrandr commands.
Your screenshot shows xrandr is working, your screen is 1360 x 768.
The problem is either steam or your games, not xrandr.
