@Daniel: That current mode is from the xrandr.txt when the working 2560x1440 resolution is set. Lionel and I got the 23.98 Hz figure from monitors.xml that I generated after the 1920x1080 change is applied and the monitor has no signal. With the monitor receiving no signal in 1920x1080, the verbose xrandr shows:
1920x1080 (0xc6) 74.176MHz +HSync +VSync *current h: width 1920 start 2558 end 2602 total 2750 skew 0 clock 26.97KHz v: height 1080 start 1084 end 1089 total 1125 clock 23.98Hz So g-c-c is definitely choosing the lowest refresh rate, whereas if I use xrandr's --mode option to set 1920x1080, it choose the 60 Hz rate, which works. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to mutter in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1892296 Title: gnome-control-center cannot change resolution of external monitor To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/1892296/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
