I am sorry but I cannot tell you anymore other than that there is no driver for the Sony monitor and there used to be one in Gutsy. I don't know how else I can describe it. It is not a bug so much as the absence of a driver.

We can try to fix it but we need a bug report with enough information (logs etc) so that we can pinpoint the issue behind it. -- cannot select sonyg420 monitor default res unusable https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/241190 You received this bug notification because you are a direct subscriber of the bug. Status in "xorg" source package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: There is no driver for Sony g420 monitor (there used to be in Gutsy) consequently a very low non adjustable resolution is set by default. This cannot be changed in "settings, monitor " This is so bad as to render the system unusable. eg I cannot burn dvds because I cannot get at the appropriate buttons in the dialog box to do so. Resizing merely changes the width of the dialog box in KB3 but cannot change the height. To me the 8.04 version of Kubuntu is a very large backward step since for me it is unusable. ddcontrol has been updated, trying to run LANG= LC_ALL= ddcontrol -p -c -d does not work. It will not run. Am I the only one who uses high quality crt monitor?
