I believe I have the same problem with my HP Pavilion dv6000 notebook, GeForce 7150M / nForce 630M. The image is stretched vertically and the lines are jumbled and confusing. The bottom image is not displayed because it is off the screen. Detected resolution is 1024x768, but should be 1280x800.

My monitor is supposed to run at 1920x1200; however, it is detected at 1680x1050 from EDID. I have always (nvidia, nv, intel) had to workaround by using a custom modeline setting and have been doing this for 2 years successfully. Nouveau works fine at the 1680 resolution; however, I cannot get nouveau to work correctly at 1920 resolution, that the monitor is designed to work at. When I use the modeline for 1920 below I can only see a tiny (~1/4 inch) section of the screen at the top of the monitor. It is big enough to see the tip of the mouse moving around and some color from the wallpaper, but not much esle. It as if the whole bottom part is cut off and black. I can get out of this by switching to a Alt-Ctl-F1 terminal. Any thoughts and Thanks, Geoff My xorg.conf is below. # nvidia-xconfig: X configuration file generated by nvidia-xconfig # nvidia-xconfig: version 1.0 (buildmeister@builder75) Tue Dec 8 21:04:28 PST 2009 Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout0" Screen 0 "Screen0" InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" EndSection Section "Files" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Unknown" HorizSync 30.0 - 81.0 VertRefresh 56.0 - 75.0 Modeline "1920x1200" 193.16 1920 2048 2256 2592 1200 1201 1204 1242 -HSync +Vsync Option "DPI" "96 x 96" #Option "DPMS" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" Driver "nouveau" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" Option "UseEDID" "False" Option "NoLogo" "false" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Device0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1920x1200" "1680x1050" "1600x1024" "1600x1200" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480" EndSubSection EndSection Section "Module" Load "glx" EndSection To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/538275/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
