Unable to add 100hz output with xrandr

Question

My TV supports 100/120hz output. I tried the following commands to add the mode:

find the magic numbers:

$ cvt 1920 1080 100
# 1920x1080 99.90 Hz (CVT) hsync: 114.58 kHz; pclk: 302.50 MHz
Modeline "1920x1080_100.00"  302.50  1920 2072 2280 2640  1080 1083 1088 1147 -hsync +vsync

Add the new mode:

$ xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_100" 302.50  1920 2072 2280 2640  1080 1083 1088 1147 -hsync +vsync

have a look at xrandr to check the mode is created correctly:

1920x1080_100 (0xec)  302.5MHz
h: width  1920 start 2072 end 2280 total 2640 skew    0 clock  114.6KHz
v: height 1080 start 1083 end 1088 total 1147           clock   99.9Hz

Now to the good part, add the mode to my HDMI output:

$ xrandr --addmode DFP2 1920x1080_100
X Error of failed request:  BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes)
Major opcode of failed request:  157 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request:  18 (RRAddOutputMode)
Serial number of failed request:  32
Current serial number in output stream:  33

I did the same for 120Hz, same issue. Is there anyone who can help me with this?

Answer 1

This

$ xrandr --addmode DFP2 1920x1080_100

should be:

$ xrandr --addmode DFP2 1920x1080_100.00
