I struggled a bit unti I realized I was using 1920x1200 - setting the /boot/config.txt is just one half of it.
EDIT: up to now, the only HDMI modes I found that work in the boot config are 2200x1650@33 and 2200x1650@30.
Nonetheless, the resolution remains 1920x1200.
Using `tvservice -m "DMT 87" ` (the only resolution available apart from a "lower and safe" one seem to be that specified in /boot/config.txt) only blanks the screen, that comes back to 1920x1200 with an [ESC].
Experimenting would be easier if there was a command to try different settings...
Maybe
` fbset -depth 16 -xres 2200 -vxres 2200 -yres 1650 -vyres 1650 ; xrefresh `
?
Sogaiu, have you tried 'hdmi_ignore_edid'? Also Everalm toyed with it. Remember, Everalm went up to eleven.
And what about
`sudo raspi-config` ; Advanced Options > Resolution
?
(I cannot test right now)
By the way, I did not remember the Raspberry PI to be so fast! It would do miracles, if only it had a fast storage (much faster than the SD).
