Just as a side note. I no longer have this problem any more, i've been using 9.04 since about alpha 4 and haven't noticed any problems similar to this.

This also happens to me on a Dell Lattitude D630. Ocassionally when I plug in an external monitor (1600x1200) and activate it in gnome- settings daemon, I get the "wall" effect and can only use the subset of the external monitor covered by the LCD (1440x900). Sometimes the unreachable area has desktop in it, sometimes only garbage. If I try to disable the external monitor afterwards, that is when gnome-display- settings tends to crash (often taking X with it) ** Changed in: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete => Confirmed -- lenovo x200 incorrect resolution && gnome prop. crash SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277372 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

Even with a fresh 8.10 install the resolution is still incorrect and the top gnome bar doesn't cover the whole screen. The login screen resolution is also incorrect even after mirrored is switched off and corrected to 1280x800 on the desktop. So! I wanted to Point this link out to anyone who has an x200 with the screen resolution problems. The xorg on this site (10/31/08) Running fresh 8.10. works perfectly for me.

[Bug 277372] Re: lenovo x200 incorrect resolution && gnome prop. crash SIGSEGV in strcmp()
The screen properties crash was fixed for me several updates ago. However, the screen resolution problem with multiple displays connected persists, and is reproducible on my system with an Intel 965 display adapter. In fact, because I work with several different versions of Linux, I can give some more information from two different perspectives on this resolution problem. First, what is supposed to happen, or be possible, when two displays are connected at the same time? It appears to me, from what I have seen and read, there should be two configurations possible: either the two displays are overlaid (mirrored), or they are separated into two screens, with one border in common so that the user can move from one to the other my simply moving the mouse past the common edge. If there are other possibilities, I am unaware of them. In the first case, with the two screens mirrored, and assuming that they have different resolution (my laptop display is 1280x800 and my external display is 1280x1024), the important question is, what resolution is chosen for the combined display? Running Ubuntu 8.10 with the latest updates and patches, it selects what appears to be the highest common resolution, which is my case turns out to be 1024x768. Although this works, it is not a particularly good resolution for either of them, and the result is not pleasing. However, running Ubuntu 8.04.1 or Mandriva 2009.0, the resolution is set to 1280x1024 (the highest of the two), and the image on the lower resolution display is simply clipped at the bottom. This produces a much more pleasing effect - in particular if you keep in mind that if you are choosing a mirrored setup, you probably don't want/need to see both displays, you are more likely going to close the laptop case, and work only on the external monitor, in which case you would prefer to get the full resolution (1280x1024) rather than the reduced "common" resolution (1024x768). In the second case, when the mirrored display is not selected, Ubuntu 8.10 works perfectly - it warns the user that the buffer size is currently not large enough, it makes the change, and once the user has restarted the X server (generally by logging out and back in), the adjacent displays are nearly perfect. The only problem I have seen with this is that the trash can icon in the lower panel is misplaced, it looks like it is at 1024 width rather than 1280. The non-mirrored setup did not work correctly at all with Ubuntu 8.04, if I recall correctly, and although it works in Mandriva 2009.0, it requires that the user edit the xorg.conf file manually, calculate the necessary virtual screen size and enter those numbers in the appropriate places. It is also worth noting that on Mandriva 2009.0, once the xorg.conf file has been edited so that the non-mirrored setup works (which involves overwriting the screen resolutions), the mirrored setup no longer works correctly, it then starts to select 1024x768 as the mirrored resolution, the same as Ubuntu 8.10. I don't know if that gives any significant hint as to where the problem might be. Thanks again for looking into this. If there is anything else I can do or test, I am happy to help. jw ** Attachment added: "Ubuntu 8.10 xorg.conf from my system (Intel 965GM)" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/18634579/xorg.Ubuntu -- lenovo x200 incorrect resolution && gnome prop. crash SIGSEGV in strcmp() https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277372 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
Re: [Bug 277372] Re: lenovo x200 incorrect resolution && gnome prop. crash SIGSEGV in strcmp()
When I did a fresh install with the beta i386 the default resolution was limited because it was set to mirrored. In the past this caused several problem. I have noticed more recently that new intel drivers were included in an update a few days ago. Since then I have experience absolutely no problems with the resolution or panel bars. I do not know if this is true with a fresh install or not however. When I create a new user the default resoultion is still wrong however and by unchecking mirrored the resolution goes back to 1280x800 (what it should be) the panel bars are in the wrong positions however and the pc needs a restart, and then you have to move the bars into the correct position. The major problems are gone however, (thouse being, part of the screen unusable/blacked out, un movable incorrect panel positioning. Thank you for your hardwork. I belive the worst is now behind us.
