Downloaded the latest kmod-nvidia from livna this morning, and finally
I can run my monitor at the 1920x1200 resolution God (or DELL, anyway)
intended it to run at. Still have to add the bogus driver option:
Option "ModeValidation" "NoMaxPClkCheck"
but that isn't new with this card (something somewhere insists that the
max pixel clock rate is considerably lower than the actual max rate
for a DVI interface, so I have to make the driver ignore that bogus
info, and it works perfectly - smoke hasn't yet started coming out of
the system after all these years of ignoring the pixel clock check :-).
Together with the magic ServerFlags option:
Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
(which makes DragLockButtons work again so my trackball is functional),
and I'm almost ready to declare fedora 9 finally usable :-).
