I am having an issue trying to adjust the resolution of my screen. I am running the following commands:
xrandr --newmode "1600x900_60.00" 118.25 1600 1696 1856 2112 900 903 908 934 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode eDP-1 1600x900_60.00
xrandr --output eDP-1 --mode 1600x900_60.00
The first two commands are running fine, but on that last command, my display freezes, forcing me to hold down the power button to restart my machine. All three commands were running fine until I ran an update on my machine.
I was using this post as a guide for these commands: https://askubuntu.com/questions/377937/how-to-set-a-custom-resolution
Are there any suggestions about how I can fix this?
Here is some information about my system and the tiling window manager I am using:
[me]/me$ uname -a
Linux me 4.13.3-1-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Thu Sep 21 20:33:16 CEST 2017 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[me]/me$ xmonad --version
xmonad 0.13
Additional details:
The mode on the first line was obtained by running cvt 1600 900 60, giving the following output:
[me]/me$ cvt 1600 900 60
Modeline "1600x900_60.00" 118.25 1600 1696 1856 2112 900 903 908 934 -hsync +vsync
And here is the output of xrandr after the first two commands (note the new 1600x900_60.00 entry that I have added):
