Geoff123, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any
activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If
so, could you please test for this with the latest development release
of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com
/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is
already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one
would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

Title:
  Nouveau not working with Modeline resolution in xorg.conf

Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I've got nouveau running on a 9500GT card, but having a problem using
  a Modeline to create a resolution setting for my monitor. 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.
