Any ideas how can I debug this problem further ? Have a look at X's logfile, /var/log/Xorg.log. There should be messages that say the modes are being removed, and why (not enough Vram, some parameter out of range, etc.). It's likely warning or errors, so it should be among the output of egrep '\([WE]{2}\)' Xorg.0.log.
Good luck, -Martin
Hmmm... Martin, if you still have a Xorg.log it means you have a really old installation, or you installed syslog-ng and integrated it with journalctl, something that is not standard anymore. Heck, OpenSUSE just removed it of Tumbleweed, it's a sign of the times.
Alfredo, as Arch uses systemd/journalctl, you need to use the command:
journalctl -b0 _EXE=/usr/lib/xorg-server/Xorg
As evidenced by your reply, if you can see the file, it's so much easier to look at and massage with base system utilities, thanks for the showcase; if it's not there, one might wish it was. Anyways, Alfredo, right, as Arch says you cannot configure your system, you NEED, you absolutely MUST use journalctl to access your logs. Happy Easter, -Martin
