Yep, I found Ubuntu 3.8.0-7-generic in one of my old backups. Too bad Ubuntu doesn't maintain a repository of kernels from previous daily builds. And actually, I'm surprised that they don't. Oh well. Guess I'll either wait until this bug is fixed before a clean install of the final release or

Thanks Till. I tested a few more mainline kernels, including 3.8.3, 3.8.4, 3.8.5, 3.8.6, and 3.8.8. Unfortunately, mirroring also doesn't work properly with any of those tested mainline kernels. So at present, at least for me, the only relatively recent kernels that properly support mirroring i

QUESTION: I know where to find earlier mainline kernels. But are earlier versions of the Ubuntu kernels available for download? If so, from where? I'd like to test mirroring with the Ubuntu 3.8.0-8 and 3.8.0-9 kernels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X

Regarding Ubuntu 13.04: In addition to working properly with the Ubuntu 3.8.0-7-generic kernel, mirroring also works properly in Ubuntu 13.04 with the mainline 3.8.0 kernel. However, at least for me, mirroring does NOT work properly in Ubuntu 13.04 with the mainline 3.8.1 kernel or with the mainl

Regarding Ubuntu 13.04: I just noticed that I am NOT restricted to a resolution of 1024x768 when using a kernel from an earlier daily build. Rather, mirroring works properly again in Ubuntu 13.04 with the Linux 3.8.0-7-generic kernel. Mirroring may also work with kernels that are more recent tha

Adding one more comment: I notice that the importance if the original report was been changed from "High" to "Wishlist" after triage. Just to reiterate, the ability to mirror the display across two monitors using a resolution equal to that of the lower resolution of the two monitors was a featu
