[solved] Debian Stretch, 4K display unavailable

#1 Post by SebastienGalliot »

Hi,

After upgrading from Jessie to Stretch, i get a max resolution of 1920x1080 on my second monitor.

How can i manage to get full 4K display working?
My graphic card is Nvidia GTX960M, and was working nicely in 4K mode with Jessie.

Code: Select all

uname -a
Linux debian 4.9.0-3-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.30-2+deb9u2 (2017-06-26) x86_64 GNU/Linux

After some hours studying xrandr and reading docs, here is the good way to add undetected resolutions :

Obtaining modelines from Xorg log https://www.x.org/wiki/FAQVideoModes/#index3h2


Read your Xorg log file (search for "clock")

Code: Select all

[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): Supported detailed timing:
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): clock: 594.0 MHz   Image Size:  596 x 335 mm
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): h_active: 3840  h_sync: 4016  h_sync_end 4104 h_blank_end 4400 h_border: 0
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): v_active: 2160  v_sync: 2168  v_sync_end 2178 v_blanking: 2250 v_border: 0
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): Supported detailed timing:
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): clock: 297.0 MHz   Image Size:  596 x 335 mm
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): h_active: 3840  h_sync: 4016  h_sync_end 4104 h_blank_end 4400 h_border: 0
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): v_active: 2160  v_sync: 2168  v_sync_end 2178 v_blanking: 2250 v_border: 0
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): Ranges: V min: 23 V max: 76 Hz, H min: 24 H max: 160 kHz, PixClock max 605 MHz
[   347.130] (II) modeset(0): Monitor name: ASUS PB27U

then produce a modeline using one of theses lines :

Code: Select all

xrandr --newmode "4K6" 297.0 3840 4016 4104 4400 2160 2168 2178 2250 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode HDMI-2  "4K6"
xrandr --output HDMI-2 --mode "4K6"

This solved my case.
