Have you tried to add a custom modeline and setting openchrome driver VBE modes parameter true to xorg.conf?

You can create a correct modeline for your monitor using a modeline calculator, for example:
http://xtiming.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/xtiming.pl, based on your display specifications:

for example:

Section Monitor

ModeLine "1400x1050_120"  262.44  1400 1520 1672 1944  1050 1051 1054 1125

EndSection

.....

Section "Device"
    Identifier  "openchrome"
    Driver      "openchrome"
    BusID	"PCI:1:0:0"
    Option 	"VBEModes" "true"
EndSection

Remember to check your display dot clock frequency verifying that is supported by openchrome driver (check man openchrome).

I'm using the same board, even if I have not experienced that resolution, I' m using:
1280x1024 1280x800 1280x768 1280x720.

I have another kind of problem with this board (chipset video CX700M2), if I restart xorgserver, on top of which I use vlc media player, more consecutive times, I tried with openchrome driver version 0.2.901, 0.2.902 (gentoo) and trunk 577, apparently randomly after a certain number of correct restarts (varying from 3 to 44 correct ones), I observed a restart with vertical green stripes along the playing video.

Did you ever experience this kind of problem?

(:confused:)

>From Xorg..log I can't see strange things, it is always the same on both restarts correct and wrong ones; this kind of problem sometime happens also rebooting.

Did you know what can generate this kind of vertical green stripes?

Thank you in advanced for your reply.
