It seems that the reason the 1024x768 mode is not available is that there is something wrong with the EDID information. From XorgLog.txt:
(II) intel(0): Not using mode "1024x768" (bad mode clock/interlace/doublescan) There have been a lot of resolution quirks in newer kernels. It is possible that this has already be fixed in Lucid. Could you give Lucid a try? You can download a LiveCD daily image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/ and the latest milestone from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/10.04/ . You may also test the latest kernels from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/ (see also https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/MainlineBuilds). If this has been fixed upstream at all, it should work with the latest drm-intel-next kernel. ** Summary changed: - external monitor resolution 800x600 + [i915gm] max external monitor resolution 800x600 instead of 1024x768 -- [i915gm] max external monitor resolution 800x600 instead of 1024x768 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/480825 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
