Top posting because this link is more helpful for correcting unrecognized modes. Right now it appears your system is working from the display modes supplied with the distribution.
Thank you! That link got me to Joy, but with a hiccup and a bit of a mystery. I quickly found the solution to the hiccup. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/851704/xrandr-errors-badname-named-color-... The line: xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00" 172.80 1920 2040 2248 2576 1080 1081 1084 1118 -HSync +Vsync uses the name "1920x1080_60.00", and xrandr no longer likes it. I just used the name "1080p". I am guessing that the "_" is the problem, but I did not test that. I was working from the command line and did the --addmode from there. My display went crazy, and I had to do a soft boot. The system came back in 1920x1080 (!) Joy. I did not have to use the --ouput step, and fix seems permanent. Cheers! -- Stephen
