Xorg.0.log

I have 1920x1200 60 Hz monitor connected via DP-HDMI cable to Lenovo T520
laptop.

Actual results:
I have configured 1920x1200 resolution (see xrandr).
Monitor's menu shows 1920x1080 input resolution.
Screen covers 1920x1080 physical area on monitor.
Fonts are blurry, seems like virtual screen image 1920x1200 reduced to
1920x1080 (When I configure 1920x1080 mode, fonts are OK).

nVidia binary blob can set 1920x1200 resolution properly on same HW
configuration.

Informations from EDID are correct, see Xorg.0.log.

Expected results:
Physical screen resolution on monitor should be 1920x1200.

I think there is some hardcoded limitation in DRM or nouveau driver. Because
hardware is perfectly capable of running 1920x1200 via HDMI.

dmesg video=DP-1:1920x1200

I cannot workaround it by adding this to kernel cmdline: video=DP-1:1920x1200
nor using xorg.conf "Modeline" and "PreferedMode" options.

At least DRM allocates "1920x1200" instead of "1920x1080", but I don't any
other change from actual results.

Can you try setting the "scaling mode" to None with xrandr?

I run: xrandr --output DP-1 --set "scaling mode" "None"

This workarounds the problem, thanks.

It's still scaled wrongly in VT and I have to run it every time I boot.

1) Can I add this workaround in kernel cmd line?

2) Could you fix it properly in nouveau driver to make it scaling right by
default?

Well, I think xrandr just manipulates the KMS property. You can do this
yourself as well. The only tool I know of that lets you do this is the
"modetest" tool that's in the tests dir of drm, but perhaps there are others.
Perhaps there's also a way to set that as a default via video= or something
like that, but I'm not aware of anything specific.

I believe that the current policy was deemed to be the correct one. I don't
really know the details of the various situations though. I believe the
implication of the EDID is that it's really a natively 1920x1080 monitor, so we
should scale for any other resolution. However, again, I'm a little weak on the
specifics. You might try asking in #nouveau or #xorg on freenode.

--- Comment #6 from Ilia Mirkin <imirkin-FrUbXkNCsVf2fBVCVOL8/A@public.gmane.org> ---
I believe semi-recent kernels have updated the logic for when to enable scaling
mode automatically. It's basically restricted to LVDS and eDP. See commit
0ea5fe8a83c, in kernel 4.0+.
