I just purchased a new Dell XPS 410 N with Ubuntu 7.04 pre-installed which comes with the nVidia GeForce 8300 GS. I'm trying to use this machine with a 22" ViewSonic VX2235wm monitor running natively at 1680x1050. After going through "dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg" gdm successfully boots at the correct resolution, however there is slight flicker and fuzziness (which makes me feel like I'm going blind). I have tried all of the suggestions from Ubuntu ( https://help.ubuntu.com/community/FixVideoResolutionHowto ) without luck. There doesn't appear to be a binary driver from nVidia supporting this card either.
When I try connecting the monitor using a DVI cable, I get a blank screen and the monitor reports "Out of Range H 65 KHz, V 60 Hz" (although both of those freqencies are within the manufacturer's specification). I'm I SOL here? -- Support for Nvidia GeForce 8400M,8300,8600 Gfx chipset https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/121163 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is the registrant for Feisty Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
