+ <para>This section assumes a bit of advanced configuration knowledge.
+ If attempts to use the standard configuration tools above have not
+ resulted in a working configuration, there is information enough
+ in the log files to be of use in getting the setup working.
+ Use of a text editor will be necessary.</para>
+
+ <para>Current Widescreen (WSXGA, WSXGA+, WUXGA, WXGA, WXGA+, et.al.)
+ formats support 16:10 and 10:9 formats or aspect ratios that can
+ be problematic. Examples of some common screen resolutions for
+ 16:10 aspect ratios are:</para>
+
+ <itemizedlist>
+ <listitem><para>2560x1600</para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>1920x1200</para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>1680x1050</para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>1440x900</para></listitem>
+ <listitem><para>1280x800</para></listitem>
+ </itemizedlist>
+
+ <para>At some point, it will be as easy as adding one of these
+ resolutions as a possible Mode in the Section "Screen" as such:</para>
+
+ <programlisting>Section "Screen"
+Identifier "Screen0"
+Device "Card0"
+Monitor "Monitor0"
+DefaultDepth 24
+SubSection "Display"
+ Viewport 0 0
+ Depth 24
+ Modes "1680x1050"
+EndSubSection
+EndSection</programlisting>
+
+ <para><application>&xorg;</application> is smart enough to pull the
+ resolution information from the widescreen via I2C/DDC information
+ so it knows what the monitor can handle as far as frequencies
+ and resolutions.</para>
+
+ <para>If those ModeLines do not exist in the drivers,
+ one might need to give <application>&xorg;</application> a little hint.
+ Using <filename>/var/log/Xorg.0.log</filename> one can extract
+ enough information to manually create a ModeLine that will work.
+ Simply look for information resembling this:</para>
+
+ <programlisting>(II) MGA(0): Supported additional Video Mode:
+(II) MGA(0): clock: 146.2 MHz Image Size: 433 x 271 mm
+(II) MGA(0): h_active: 1680 h_sync: 1784 h_sync_end 1960 h_blank_end 2240 h_border: 0
+(II) MGA(0): v_active: 1050 v_sync: 1053 v_sync_end 1059 v_blanking: 1089 v_border: 0
+(II) MGA(0): Ranges: V min: 48 V max: 85 Hz, H min: 30 H max: 94 kHz, PixClock max 170 MHz</programlisting>
+
+ <para>This information is called EDID information. Creating a
+ ModeLine from this is just a matter of putting the numbers in the
+ correct order:</para>
+
+ <programlisting> ModeLine <name> <clock> <4 horiz. timings> <4 vert. timings></programlisting>
+
+ <para>So that the ModeLine in Section "Monitor" for this example
+ would look like this:</para>
+
+ <programlisting>Section "Monitor"
+Identifier "Monitor1"
+VendorName "Bigname"
+ModelName "BestModel"
+ModeLine "1680x1050" 146.2 1680 1784 1960 2240 1050 1053 1059 1089
+Option "DPMS"
+EndSection</programlisting>
+
+ <para>Now having completed these simple editing steps, X should start
+ on your new widescreen monitor.
