# Using this script you can change your output resolution #
# to any one you need. Just adjust some vars below and run script #
# (chmod +x needed). #

# Set output name to work with. You can get it via 'xrandr --listactivemonitors'
output="HDMI-3"
# Set width of this output in px
width=1920
# Set height of this output in px
height=1080
# Set refresh rate in Hz of this output in px
refresh=120
# Sometimes cvt and gtf generates different modelines.
# You can play around and look which of them gives best result:
modeline=$(cvt ${width} ${height} ${refresh} | grep "Modeline")
# modeline=$(gtf ${width} ${height} ${refresh} | grep "Modeline")
# Some important data needed to xrandr:
modename="${width}x${height}@${refresh}_my"
params=$(echo "$modeline" | sed "s|^\s*Modeline\s*\"[0-9x_.]*\"\s*||")
echo "Set resolution ${width}x${height}@${refresh} on output $output:"
echo "$modename $params"
# Simple logic:
# 1. Switch output to safe mode which always exists (I believe) to avoid errors
xrandr --output $output --mode 640x480 --verbose
# 2. If output aready have our mode -- we must delete it to avoid errors
if $(xrandr | grep -q "$modename"); then
# 2.1. Detach mode from output
xrandr --delmode $output $modename
# 2.2. Remove mode itself
xrandr --rmmode $modename
fi
# 3. Create new mode with freshly generated parameters
xrandr --newmode $modename $params --verbose
# 4. Attach mode to our output
xrandr --addmode $output $modename --verbose
# 5. Switch output to this mode immidiately
xrandr --output $output --mode $modename --refresh $refresh --verbose
