I've managed to resolve the issue with a kludge. Workaround is here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=9522241
Luckily I kept my XP partition around just in case something like this happened. I've attached copies of the EDID read through ubuntu, as well as a copy using the Phoenix tool in windows. Since the EDID read by windows makes X work properly, I'm assuming that the edidfail problem is related to the proprietary NVIDIA drivers, though if someone could clarify that for me I'd appreciate it. All in all, as crappy as this bug was, it gave me an opportunity to learn what the heck an EDID was :P -- resolution change and edidfail after resizing partition https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/599219 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
