Iiyama Vision Master Pro 17 computer monitor in X Windows

This will only work with the exact model: MT-9017E

Description of the monitor[]

  • Product Title: S/H Iiyama Vision Master Pro 17" (0.25ag)
  • Publisher: Iiyama
  • Stock Code: IIY-MT9017ESH (or MT-9017E)
  • 17" Diamondtron
  • 16.5" viewable image
  • 0.25 mm dot pitch
  • Official Maximum Resolution: 1600 x 1200 at 72 Hz
  • H Frequency: 27-92 kHz (27.0-86.0 kHz depending on other sources)
  • V Frequency: 50–160 Hz
  • Input Connector: 15 pin and BNC

When you have a pitch of 0.25 on a 17 inch monitor, the best is to use 1300x975 resolution.

You can try this resolution if you want it at 100 Hz: 1152x864. It didn't worked for me well, only at 90 Hz.

X.org configuration[]

You have to edit your /etc/X11/xorg.conf file as root. You must add the following at the right place in the file :
