Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
I'm struggling to configure a HP dm1 with an Intel GMA4500 chipset. When I attached my external monitor to the VGA port, gnome-display- properties would correctly identify it and display it, but enabling it didn't seem to have any effect (although no error or other feedback was produced). Each attempt added the following dmesg messages: [17228.008395] i2c-adapter i2c-2: unable to read EDID block. [17228.008399] i915 0000:00:02.0: HDMI Type A-1: no EDID data I therefore thought it might be related to https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=493977 or to Bug #447803. However, trying xrandr: % xrandr --output LVDS1 --auto --rotate normal --pos 0x0 --output VGA1 --auto --rotate normal --right-of LVDS1 correctly set up the monitor as expected, so I file this against gnome- display-properties (package: gnome-control-center), which as a minimum could provide more information when it fails to set up monitors :-) ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gnome-display-properties fails to add new monitor https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/491778 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
