Let's suppose that you have your oh-so-tweaked XFree86
mode and you want to evaluate Xinside in the same conditions:
follow the steps described below and you should be able to
do it; we will use my default video mode as a real-life example and I will
explain what you will have to do to convert it.
An Xfree86 entry looks like this:
Modeline "blahblah" DOTCLK A B C D a b c d
Every one of the A-D and a-d numbers has a meaning: if you
want you can search for it in the 'The Hitchhiker's Guide to X386/XFree86
Video Timing' ( /usr/lib/X11/doc/VideoModes.doc ) but
you don't need to know the theory behind all this to
perform a succesful conversion...
My modeline in /usr/lib/X11/XF86Config is:
Modeline "1168x876" 105 1168 1256 1544 1640 876 877 891 900
| | | | | | | | |
DOT_CLK A B C D a b c d
In Xinside, you have to add an entry in the Xtimings file, which
should be located in etc/ ( from now on we suppose you are in
the top Xaccel directory that should be something like
/usr/X11/lib/X11/AcceleratedX )
