[Bug 234898] Re: xf86-video-geode: unable to use non-default resolutions with GX2 on XFCE
GREAT NEWS!! I finally (very sorry it took this long) managed to get back to this and re-install Xubuntu 9.10 --- it worked beautifully right out of the box and is able to use my 1260x1024 throughout the boot as well as after the install. This is really beautiful!! Thanks very much for fixing it.

Stephen, have you been able to verify whether what's in Karmic or in my PPA restores operation on your DECTOP? -- xf86-video-geode: unable to use non-default resolutions with GX2 on XFCE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 234898] Re: xf86-video-geode: unable to use non-default resolutions with GX2 on XFCE
Fixes for GX2 support probably need to be backported to Jaunty and Intrepid, maybe even Hardy. However, I have no GX2 hardware to test with (I only have GX1 and LX hardware on hand), so I'm unable to verify which Ubuntu releases need this fix backported. -- xf86-video-geode: unable to use non-default resolutions with GX2 on XFCE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Stéphane Graber reports in bug #270912 that Geode 2.11.4.1 (currently in my PPA) resolves this issue for him. FYI, maximum resolutions supported by the GX2 "Red Cloud" Geode are: CRT: 1600x1200 TFT: 1280x1024 -- xf86-video-geode: unable to use non-default resolutions with GX2 on XFCE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 234898] Re: xf86-video-geode: unable to use non-default resolutions with GX2 on XFCE since Hardy
Looking at the X.org log, it appears that your display is correctly probed. However, the driver fails at matching its available modes with any of those supported by your display. Did we understand correctly that the driver works as expected under Hardy (8.04) and that it only fails if you upgrade to Intrepid (8.10)? If that's the case, it might point to an issue involving the X server core upgrade from 1.4 to 1.5 - which would need to be inestigated separately. -- xf86-video-geode: unable to use non-default resolutions with GX2 on XFCE https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/234898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
