Has anyone had any success doing this?
I am trying to connect a Supermicro X8SIL-F which has an onboard mga :-
(--) PCI:*(0:6:3:0) 102b:0532:15d9:0605 Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G200eW WPCM450 rev 10, Mem @ 0xfa000000/16777216, 0xfb7fc000/16384, 0xfb800000/8388608, BIOS @ 0x????????/65536

to a BenQ which can do 1920x1080.

Unfortunately I get the following..
[snip]
(II) MGA(0): Not using driver mode "1920x1080" (width too large for virtual size)
(II) MGA(0): Not using driver mode "1280x1024" (mode requires too much memory bandwidth)
(II) MGA(0): Not using driver mode "1600x900" (width too large for virtual size)
(II) MGA(0): Not using driver mode "1680x1050" (width too large for virtual size)
(II) MGA(0): Not using driver mode "1920x1080" (width too large for virtual size)
(WW) MGA(0): Shrinking virtual size estimate from 1920x1080 to 1280x1024
(--) MGA(0): Has SDRAM
(--) MGA(0): Virtual size is 1280x1024 (pitch 1280)

And I am stuck with 1280x1024.

I have tried various things like :-
Section "Screen"
        Identifier "Screen0"
        Device     "Card0"
        Monitor    "Monitor0"
        SubSection "Display"
                Virtual 1920 1080
                Depth     24
                Modes "1920x1080"
        EndSubSection
EndSection


but no change..

PS please CC me on reply, thanks.
