I wrote a few days ago to say that the Live CD works OK with my setup. I have now upgraded my installed version from Feisty to Gutsy and have found that the splash screen and boot progress bar does not display because the monitor complains that the settings are out of range. In Feisty the work

Checkmate, take a look at the description of this bug, and try some of the suggested things there. sudo ddcprobe (attach the output) Perhaps install the read-edid package, and post the output from: sudo get-edid What is the output of: sudo get-edid | parse-edid -- Xorg resolution falling back

Ah, 64 bit. As I understand it, there are some issues probing monitor info on 64 bit machines that people are working on. Hopefully it will be resolved by Hardy. People not replying probably means they don't know how to help.. that or are jealous of your huge hi-res monitor ;) -- Xorg

I doubt the 64-bitness is a problem here, because it got the EDID data from my monitor. The vesa driver has to use an x86 emulator to run code from the video BIOS, but I think it manages that fine (Fine here, but not on my Tecra 8000). I looked at the source code for ddcprobe (part of xresprobe)

Attached is a patch for the file ddcprobe/ddcprobe.c in xresprobe. Here is the REAL spec for the aspect field of a standard timing descriptor: 00: 16/10 01: 4/3 10: 5/4 11: 16/9 After applying this patch, it mostly works. There's no more 1680x1680 or 1440x1440 when I do sudo dpkg-reconfigure

Checkmate: wow, that's an insidious little bug you've found! We'll want to do some testing before we commit that. Can you file a new bug requesting that patch, and assign it to me? I think if it causes no other unusual behavior we can roll out that change for Gutsy. -- Xorg resolution

I don't know if this information helps, but I have to tell ;) When I connect my beamer to my laptop with a long (5m) vga-cable, the desktop and beamer resolution is set to 800x600 and I don't get the resolution higher. When I use a short cable (1.5m) everything works fine (1024x768). So for now,

Hi, as this bug seems to be the one where to gather resolution autodetection problems, here I go. Feisty failed to detect well the native resolution (1400x1050) of my laptop screen. That is strange because xresprobe gave the right one. I have no idea what went wrong. It's an asus laptop based
