Title:
4:3 monitor not supported in login, install, switch user etc
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-ati” package in Ubuntu:
Expired
Bug description:
Binary package hint: xorg
I use a new acer monitor that has a aspect ratio of 4:3
on login, switch user, and even install, the default resolution seems
to be set for wide screens (16:10 aspect ration)- and so my monitor
displays a large blue block right in the middle of the screen that
says "input not support" and it never goes away. Being in the middle,
this blocks most of the action, such as the list of users, the
password edit box and in previous versions all the prompts during
install. (I installed 10.04 by first running the live cd, and then
changing resolutions in system>preferences>monitors before installing,
so this time I could see what I was doing, but this solution only
fixes the working environment, not the logins, splash screen etc)
in ubuntu 9.10 I found a solution, where I changed the screen modes in
xorg.conf- but this file has since been removed from 10.04 so that
solution no longer works.
I am yet to find another solution on 10.04. Until i do I cannot login
filed this on ubuntu brainstorm- but was redirected here
