<br>
I have a GeForce GT 520 Nvidia that I had connected to 2 1920x1080<br>
monitors. I used the VGA connection<br>
I also have a GeForce 8400GS NVidia that I have connected to two 1920x1200<br>
monitors. I use the VGA connection.<br>
I have xfce 4.10 and run Debian Jessie<br>
<br>
I used to configure all with nvidia-settings, but for some reason that is<br>
not included in Jessie anymore, so I need to do things manually.<br>
All worked perfectly and I had a working xorg.conf<br>
<br>
Now I want to use the HDMI connection on the GT 520 instead of the 2xVGA.<br>
Here is the thing: I get it to run in 1920x1080, but I do not see<br>
everything. I only see part of it. Bit hard to describe, so here is a<br>
background image I made : <a href="http://houghi.org/XFCE/test.png" target="_blank">http://houghi.org/XFCE/test.png</a><br>
It is 1920x1080. I do see it all when I use the VGA connection, but not<br>
when I use the HDMI conection.<br>
What I see is nothing of the white border and only a bit of the yellow.<br>
(If need be, I can take a photo and put that online.<br>
<br>
I have tried it on three different monitors from three different brands,<br>
so it is not that. My xorg.conf can be found here:<br>
<a href="http://houghi.org/XFCE/xorg.conf" target="_blank">http://houghi.org/XFCE/xorg.conf</a><br>
<br>
I also tried using xrandr:<br>
houghi@penne : xrandr<br>
Screen 2: minimum 8 x 8, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 16384 x 16384<br>
DVI-I-0 disconnected primary (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)<br>
VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)<br>
DVI-I-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)<br>
HDMI-0 connected 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)<br>
640mm x 360mm<br>
1360x768 60.37 +<br>
1920x1080 60.00* 59.94 50.00 60.05 60.00 50.04<br>
1280x1024 60.02<br>
1280x720 60.61 59.94 50.00<br>
1024x768 60.00<br>
800x600 60.32<br>
720x576 50.00 50.08<br>
720x480 60.05<br>
640x480 59.94 59.93<br>
<br>
<br>
I tried using<br>
`xrandr --output HDMI-0 --rate 60 --mode 1920x1080 --fb 1920x1080 --panning 1920x1080`<br>
and that did not change anything.<br>
<br>
Using "Display Settings" does not have any influence either. I still do<br>
not see the whole desktop.<br>
<br>
What else can I do? What other information do you need?<br>
