Xconfig xrandr BadMatch

nvidia xorg display-resolution xrandr
90,034

Solution 1

I had this "BadMatch" problem:

 X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
   Major opcode of failed request:  140 (RANDR)
   Minor opcode of failed request:  18 (RRAddOutputMode)
   Serial number of failed request:  27
   Current serial number in output stream:  28

And solved it by editing xorg.conf manually. Add or correction this line in this monitor section:

HorizSync  30-82
VertRefresh  56-76

Save, restart and voila. Resolution is ok. I supposed that problem was there because I used a D-sub to DVI adapter. The display had a D-Sub connector, while the card was DVI. The problem was only on the closed-source nVidia driver; Nouveau was OK.

Solution 2

Method 1 - Clear the xorg.conf

Try remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf, restart your x window, and try setting the resolution with nvidia-settings again. Usually the auto-detect work perfectly with DVI cable. But I cannot find the monitor spec online so I am not sure if it has DVI connector.

Method 2 - xorg.org modes line

Try adding the Modes line in Screen section

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth    24
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes    "1440x900" "1280x800" "1024x768" "800x600"
    EndSubSection

    Recently I minimal installed my OS, but got an unexpected error while setting my monitor resolution. It seems like a very old problem, but this time there is something else (I think).

    1. To install the desktop environment: apt-get update, apt-get install xorg-core xserver-xorg-core gnome-core gdm3
    2. To install graphics drivers: apt-get install build-essential nvidia-kernel-common linux-headers-$(uname -r), ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-304.64.run

    With the above steps everything seems to go fine.

    1. To set resolution : cvt 1440 900, xrandr --newmode xxx, xrandr --addmode VGA-0 xxx

      Then I got this error:

      X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request:  153 (RANDR).
Minor opcode of failed request:  18 (RRAddOutputMode).
Serial number of failed request:  29.
Current serial number in output stream:  30

    I don't know what information you need, but here is some:

    • graphics card model: nVidia GT 630.
    • graphics card's memory size: 512 M DDR5.
    • monitor: Philips 190CW (1440x900, works well on Windows). 

    These are my settings in Windows (I haven't installed the monitor driver and Windows just recognizes it as 190g6.)

    monitor settings — Custom Resolution 1440x900 — other options 1280x1024 (native), 1280x960, 1280x800, 1280x768

    I tried to get edid:

    but got this error:

    I tried to force the resolution to 1440x900 by using nvidia-settings, after reboot, resolution changed to 1440x1024 (nvidia-settings added a line to xorg.conf: Option "metamodes" "1440x1024 +0+0").  The screen become horizon-scrollable like that:

    image of 1440x1024 workspace viewed in 1280x1024 display

    I also tried to extract edid.bin (by using nvidia-settings) and add Option "CustomEDID" "DFP-1:/etc/X11/edid.bin" at Section "Device" to xorg.conf. thanks to the awesome post "Fixing Ugly DVI/HDMI Displays due to EDID bugs on nVidia drivers", but unfortunately it doesn't work either.

      I can't believe that am can force the resolution to 1440X900 in windows but linux can't. sorry for bad English.
    • Admin
      Admin over 11 years
      (1) What is the model of your video card and how much memory it has? (2) In windows when doing 1440x900, are you using 24bit color or 16bit?
    • Admin
      Admin over 11 years
      @John Siu sorry for the late response. am updated the question.（1） it's gt630 with 512M ddr5 memory.(2)using 32bit color in windos.

      @John Siu can't open pastebin.com, so I updated the question.

      Do you have dbus installed? If no, try installing it.

      I went through your xorg.0.log and updated my answer.

      @nibot Sorry, my monitor was sold before your comment.. I'm regret not be able to test it. BTW why not accept your own answer. It's helpful to others who have the same EDID problem.

    I'll try it, not now but after work. Am hope it works well for me, if so, the bounty is yours :)

    It is a bit strange you have a new kernel 3.x but such an old X11 package. Maybe you can consider doing apt-get update; apt-get dist-upgrade to refresh all your packages.
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    Any progress or still the same?
  • Teifi
    Teifi over 11 years
    sorry, it can't work... if am detect another minitor, the other resolution is '1440x900', this very strange.
  • John Siu

    the other monitor is dvi or vga?
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    Additionally, you properly still need the modes line for a vga monitor even with latest X11.
  • Teifi
    Teifi over 11 years
    yes, the other monitor connected width computer via VGA cable. and I added the metamode line to xorg.conf, so am feel it's very strange.
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    Can you update the xorg.0.log?
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    Added modeline for monitor section.
  • Teifi
    Teifi over 11 years
    dear John Siu, am tried adding modeline at the monitor section, at that time hsync and vsync were generated by X (different form monitor's manual). after reboot, X gives me a black screen. :(
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    Remove all BUT 1440x900_60 and 1440x900_50, it is possible the others have frequency too high.
  • Teifi
    Teifi over 11 years
    @John Siu I tried to added modelline at monitor section before u told me to add. that gave me a black screen. I haven't tried your recent update, sorry...
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    Modeline for monitor section and Modes for screen section are different.
  • Teifi
    Teifi over 11 years
    I sold the monitor and buy a new one and got the correct resolution...
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    o ... k ... good solution, LOL
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    @Teifi I believe you get one with dvi connector. In theory, you should remove/rename xorg.conf, restart X windows, and able to pick all resolution in Display setting.
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    Not LOL, but used to play D3.
  • Teifi

    am got the resolution via VGA cable and DVI cable. :)
  • John Siu
    John Siu over 11 years
    So do need the to use xorg.conf anymore? You can use the Nvidia tools to create one for you if needed. Just change setting and save it.

    How does one fix the error reported by the OP? I need to use his process and get the "--addmode" line to not error-out, for my situation.

    This made no difference for me, the error still occurred after changing HorizSync and VertRefesh.

    You saved my day! I was searching and digging the web for a solution, until I applied yours! It even crossed my mind to revert to windows. God bless you! :)

    This is the only solution that worked for me. I'm using a DVI to VGA adapter for my monitor.
