The problem here would be that the KVM device is blocking your monitor from sending EDID information, which contains the supported resolutions.
I'm not sure if we can offer any software workarounds for this... ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => xorg-server (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1769822 Title: VGA Resolution Detect with KVM Status in xorg-server package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Detects fine with direct connect, but when through kvm (works fine with windows) will not detect proper resolution. Log files should show: 1. Boot with KVM attached. 2. Plug monitor direct to motherboard (bypass) - old resolution for instant, then change to proper resolution. 3. Swap back to monitor with KVM - Ok for instant, then blank and back to low resolution. KVM model is kvm 41ua - purchased from ebay.
