[Desktop-packages] [Bug 970560] Re: Displays is registering dual monitors as laptop when using fglrx
Hello Britt, or anyone else affected, Accepted gnome-desktop3 into precise-proposed. The package will build now and be available at http://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome- desktop3/3.4.2-0ubuntu0.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository. Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users. If this package fixes the bug for you, please change the bug tag from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not, change the tag to verification-failed. In either case, details of your testing will help us make a better decision. Further information regarding the verification process can be found at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .

I am having the same problem using a Integrated NVidia GF8100 Graphics with DX10. I totally disagree that this is minor problem. The video card has to be detected properly in order for the Gnome Color Management to function properly to get the correct ICC profiles imported for whatever hardware needs to be configured. Because we are now using ICC profiles in lieu of the old manual configuration methods. My system is only detecting my motherboard an my printer. My monitor is not being detected, hence my colors are all screwed up. If any one can tell me how to correct this problem I will be eternally grateful.

Re: [Desktop-packages] [Bug 970560] Re: Displays is registering dual monitors as laptop when using fglrx
I know that this is not a critical bug, but IMHO we cannot consider it just as a cosmetic problem. In fact people usually doesn't look at the rectangle color you mentioned, but they focus on the label they see in Display window, and they get confused. I'm not a professional developer, i saw in the link to the change you posted above, that the bug may be caused from a condition added in an if expression: strstr (output-name, DFP) Couldn't we modify the code in order to apply that condition ONLY if the pc is a mac?? For example: from: strstr (output-name, DFP) to something like this: (strstr (output-name, DFP) some_variable_that_make_me_know_it's_a_mac) I know that it's an ugly solution, but now, in this moment, the application isn't working properly, with that ugly workaround (that maybe we will remove once the problem is solved in a better way) the application works. Maybe i'm just writing a lot of rubbish, but in this case, i'd like to know the reason. In this period I made some test and I also noticed that the color of the rectangles you wrote about are wrong, in fact in the monitor that Display window marks with the red color I can see a rectangle with a green one, and the same is for the other... It's not so intuitive that in order to modify the resolution of the monitor with the red rectangle i have to modify the resolution of the monitor marked with the green color in Display window. Maybe if you need in these days i'll post some screenshots. I hope we will find a solution in order to make Ubuntu a better Distro.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 970560] Re: Displays is registering dual monitors as laptop when using fglrx
Same problem, same Ubuntu versione, same drivers (fglrx), my graphic card is an ati mobility radeon hd 5600 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/970560 Title: Displays is registering dual monitors as laptop when using fglrx Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Today after installing the fglrx drivers on my Radeon 6950 cayman card, in the Displays options, in order to get dual monitors to work I had to first go into amdcccle and enable it there, restart the computer, and THEN enable it in the displays setting.

It would be nice if we could Unify the displays menu to where it will enable dual monitors in amdccle when that option is selected or visa versa. It would also be nice to see the two monitors registering as their proper names and differentiation.

Here is my Displays Window, as you can see all the monitors are named as Portatile wich in Italian means laptop, but just one of the two monitors is the laptop one. Also in Color capplet I can see all the monitors listed with the same name ** Attachment added: laptop_for_every_monitor.png https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/970560/+attachment/2999162/+files/laptop_for_every_monitor.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/970560 Title: Displays is registering dual monitors as laptop when using fglrx Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Today after installing the fglrx drivers on my Radeon 6950 cayman card, in the Displays options, in order to get dual monitors to work I had to first go into amdcccle and enable it there, restart the computer, and THEN enable it in the displays setting.
