| Post subject: | Syntax Olevia Televisions VGA |
These are great TVs, but they don't work right with the X configurators over VGA (they return bunk values for DisplaySize.) This makes the fonts all really big (REALLY big, only about 5 letters fit on screen at once.) I have an LT32HVE but I have seen postings other places about this same problem with other Olevia models, but I figured I would post the fix here for anyone else who has problems for archival purposes: 1) Measure your TV in millimeters (just the screen, no case.) 2) Edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 3) Find the "Monitor" section of the config 4) Add "DisplaySize x y" in the "Monitor" section, where x and y are the respective measurements of your TV in mm 5) Restart X. This should make everything work properly, so you can swap between 4:3 and 16:9 modes as well. |

It would probably help if you posted your XF86Config-4.... |

I have one of these TV's as well (the LT37HVS). I can post my XF86Config/modelines if anyone needs them. |

I have the LT30HV and I've finally gotten good modelines and displaysize. I'm not happy with my displaysize, but it will due for now until I finalize it. I could NEVER find the pitch size of Syntax monitors, but this site might help you find your timings and other monitor details: http://www.entechtaiwan.net/forums/view ... 3dd099ae83 For me, I use the DisplaySize 550 310 , use this for more informations: http://knoppmythwiki.org/index.php?page=FontSizeHowTo |
