Hi
Again need you help.
Sorry... First should to say to you ALL Merry Christmas!
Next trouble. I have bough second hand Xenarc 7000YYV 7" touch screen monitor.
ddcprobe gives me supported modes and nothing more. When X starts it tries to check edid, doesn't get anything reasonable and puts new xorg.conf file on the place of older one. Of course, no fonts patch, no individual setings ... nothing.
How to force xwin to not check the hardware and just use the setings which I have gave?
How to force Puppy to not check monitor at boot?

The best way would be to take the last line from the bad xorg.conf that's created (the puppyprofile line) add add it at the bottom of your good xorg.conf.Vaklin wrote:ddcprobe gives me supported modes and nothing more.

Another way would be to find the part of xwin that looks at the profile and just comment it out.

I had the same problem with my 8"-touchscreen monitor. Also figureing out the correct modelines ( www.x.org > FAQ) didn't help, puppy 4 always started with a 800x480 resolution. The reason was, that the hsync range was to small in the monitor section of xorg.conf. After extending the range, I could adjust 800x600 and 1024x768 resolution. But do not run xorgwizard again, it will overwrite the changes of hsync and modeline in xorg.conf.
