Title:
display resolution for external monitor cannot be set to anything
higher than 640x480
Status in “xorg-server” package in Ubuntu:
Invalid
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xorg
Hi guys!
I have a Fujitsu E8460 Laptop infront of me with an Nvidia graphics card.
If I try to switch to an attached beamer by pressing Fn+F10 I do get a
picture on the beamer except it is completely blown out of proportion.
Apparently I do have a 1360x768 resolution in a 640x480 pane, meaning that i
have to scroll the picture arround in this pane.
Within nvidia-settings in the menu item "x-server display configuration" I
can set the resolution for the external monitor to 480x320 or 640x480 or auto
or off. that is it. And in "Panning" I can put whatever I want...
Also the driver does not recognize the externeal device at all, as it is
being called "CRT0", it is a Panasonic PT-LB55NTE Beamer.
I guess this is why I don't get to see any other resolutions?
How can I circumvent this? For example by setting the values' range
manually?
We would be very grateful if you could look into this as soon as
possible as we are talking about a productive device here that is
being required urgently!
Thanks in advance and your's,
Firebug
