how to force 144hz? #668

Open Peredery opened 3 years ago

Peredery commented 3 years ago

Hello, how to setup 144hz for x410 or vcxsrv? I have 144hz monitor, and for some reason all gui apps from Pengwin running on 60hz instead of 144hz.

Thanks!

@crramirez if you need help from my side, then write, because I understand that monitors with 144hz are not often used at work 😃

I am waiting to have time to answer you. Do you have any chance to test this page in a bare metal Linux? It looks like it is limiting the frame rate on purpose. You can for example execute a command line glxgears to see some statistics

running glxgears image

Hello, I have the same issue. However, glxgears runs at between 238 and 863 FPS. My monitor is 240Hz and I would like to use vcxsrv on high refresh. Any solution yet?

crramirez commented 3 years ago

Hello,

The thing is that the Linux programs don't have knowledge of the monitor configuration. Probably this is hard coded in the xaerver code or due to it is software rendering it is limited to 60.

I haven't had time to make tests or dig into it.

Regards
