|
is a utility for calculating VESA Coordinated Video Timing modes. Given the
|
|
|
|
|
desired horizontal and vertical resolutions, a modeline adhering to the CVT

Provide a vertical refresh rate in Hz. The CVT standard prefers either 50.0,
|
|
|
|
|
60.0, 75.0 or 85.0Hz. The default is 60.0Hz.

.TP 8
|
|
|
|
|
.BR \-v | \-\-verbose
|
|
|
|
|
Warn verbosely when a given mode does not completely correspond with CVT
|
|
|
|
|
standards.
|
|
|
|
|
.TP 8
|
|
|
|
|
.BR \-r | \-\-reduced
|
|
|
|
|
Create a mode with reduced blanking. This allows for higher frequency signals,
|
|
|
|
|
with a lower or equal dotclock. Not for Cathode Ray Tube based displays though.
