NAME
xmode - Calculate X11 Modelines
SYNOPSIS
xmode [ options ]
DESCRIPTION
xmode calculates X11 modelines according to your specifi
cations the output from xmode contains three lines where
the first line print the horizontal sync value in Khz and
the second line the refresh rate in Hz The third and last
line is the modeline to be used within the
/etc/X11/XF86Config file
COMMAND LINE OPTIONS
Available command line options are the following:
- -d dacspeed
- RamDac speed to use for the Modeline
- -r refresh rate in Hz
- Set basic refresh rate to use for the Modeline
- -s horizontal sync rate in Khz
- Set basic fhorizontal sync rate to use for the Mod
eline - -x X dimension in pixels
- Set X resolution
- -y Y dimension in pixels
- Set Y resolution
- -n Do not call the check geometry algorithm. This
- algorithm tries to put the image to the center but
this will change the basic values for refreshand/or horizontal sync rate. If you want the mode
line to be exactly at the given frequencies use
this option. - -f Calculate Framebuffer modes instead of X11 modes
- which can be used with a fbset call, if the kernel
framebuffer is able to swtich the mode
