Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nvidia-settings
I recently upgraded to a 20'' ASUS VW202SR LCD but I haven't been able
to configure the optimal resolution (1680x1050) for use with my laptop
(a Toshiba Satellite A100 317). I had successfully configured my old
monitor (a 19'' Dell LCD) for its optimal resolution (1280x1024).
There appears to be nothing wrong with the hardware since everything
works fine in Windows (I had to manually add the resolution there too
though).
The problem seems to be that nvidia-settings is unable to detect all the
resolutions the monitor is capable of displaying, the maximum I can get
is 1280x1024. I also tried manually adding the resolution to xorg.conf
but when I restart X I get no video signal (neither on the external
monitor nor on the laptop display).
I had this problem with Intrepid and also with the new jaunty beta (I
upgraded just to see if something had changed).
Here's my configuration:
- Toshiba Satellite A100 317
- monitor: ASUS VW202SR
- VGA: GeForce Go 7300
lspci reports this for the video card:
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation G72M [Quadro NVS
110M/GeForce Go 7300] (rev a1)
Let me know if you need more information.
Best,
Eros
