Can not set proper resolution on this one monitor












2















I have a laptop with Intel HD graphics and running on Linux trusty 3.13.0-45-generic.



I never had problems connecting external displays to my Display Port, but now I got a new monitor and can not get my laptop to output the proper resolution.



The display is the Asus ROG Swift PG278Q.



When I run xrandr, all I get for the Display Port is



DP1 connected 1024x768+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
1024x768 60.0*
800x600 60.3 56.2
848x480 60.0
640x480 59.9


Then I tried to add the proper mode manually, so I ran:



$ cvt 2560 1440 60
# 2560x1440 59.96 Hz (CVT 3.69M9) hsync: 89.52 kHz; pclk: 312.25 MHz
Modeline "2560x1440_60.00" 312.25 2560 2752 3024 3488 1440 1443 1448 1493 -hsync +vsync


Then added the mode:



xrandr --newmode "2560x1440_60.00"  312.25  2560 2752 3024 3488  1440 1443 1448 1493 -hsync +vsync
xrandr --addmode DP1 "2560x1440_60.00"


Upon activating the mode with



xrandr --output DP1 --mode 2560x1440_60.00


All I see on the display is the message



OUT OF RANGE


I also tried other resolutions and refresh rates with no success. On an other display my laptop manages 2560x1440p60 without problems. This particular monitor also works in this mode on a windows machine of mine.



Any suggestions on how to solve or debug this?
