Re: debian-6.0.7-amd64 how to set resolution and refresh for free NVIDIA X drivers?
I deleted the earlier messages. Hopefully, this is appropriate:
I wrote a startup script to fix my resolution aka `add new modes' to the
ones xrandr is showing you.
------------------------------
#!/bin/bash
# Purpose: Setting the monitor parameters for Samsung 943nw
# Date: 2013-03-19

# modeline obtained manually via `gtf' call.
xrandr --newmode "1440x900_70.00" 126.98 1440 1536 1688 1936 900 901
904 937 -HSync +Vsync
xrandr --addmode VBOX0 1440x900_70.00
xrandr --output VBOX0 --mode 1440x900_70.00
------------------------------
1. You have to create _your_ modelines
2. Replace VBOX0 with what you see when you run xrandr alone.
3. Hopefully shed tears of joy
