If you choose “Use Application Settings” for Set Multi-Sample Anti-Aliasing, despite our recommendation, set Conservative Morphological Anti-Aliasing to Override. Set Conservative Morphological Anti-Aliasing to “Override Application Settings.” This is an alternative to the above setting.This boosts your performance at the cost of some jagged edges.
Set Multi-Sample Anti-Aliasing to “Turn Off.” Even if applications request multi-sample anti-aliasing to reduce jagged edges, this option makes the Intel graphics driver ignore that request.Set Application Optimal Mode to “Enable.” This option enables optimizations that increase performance in a variety of games.The last step was to simply add the mode to nf which looks like this: Section "Monitor" So I tried these mode lines with xrandr and bingo! I suddenly had a working mode line that forced the resolution into 2560 x 1440. I looked in Xorg.log (like I did several times before) but this time, after trying so many combinations of mode lines, I noticed that the listed mode lines were a bit different than those obtained from cvt and gtf. But none of the obtained mode lines worked, so I gave up on xrandr and tried other solutions.Īctually, I even bought a new graphics card, and while unpacking it, I decided to give the existing card a last chance. I tried to obtain the mode lines with cvt and gtf which appeared to be the way to get these. I wrote in my questions that I tried to force the mode with xrandr but got an error. But where on earth is the download link on that page? I really can't find it!ĮDIT: I forgot to mention that I have tried forcing a new resolution with xrandr but I get a xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed when I try to apply the new modes. I can fake an Ubuntu distro by editing lsb-release and then it installs something but still I can't choose the correct resolution in the Displays utility.Īccording to the Intel download center for HD 4600 there is a driver for Linux. There is a Intel graphics installer but when I run it, it says "Distribution not supported". Mint 16 boots up in the correct resolution straight from a LiveUSB so something has changed (upstream probably) between the two versions.
This post looked promising but the suggestions didn't help. I have spend 3 hours googling around trying different suggestions without luck. Unfortunately it only supports a low resolution of 1920 x 1200 which looks horrible in contrast to the monitor's native 2560 x 1440. I have just installed Linux Mint 17 on my desktop computer with a Intel HD 4600 graphics card.
