Hmm, well looking at that output it's not a case of a mis-parsed edid but rather your television only provides the one resolution. Your xrandr output says the same.
I know it sucks to be told, "Your hardware is working as designed", but... ;-) The reason it works in Lucid is probably because that older version of nvidia is ignoring the edid. In your xorg.conf I see you are specifying the HorizSync and VertRefresh, and then I suppose forcing a particular resolution via the metamodes option. Even with newer nvidia and intel drivers, you can also override the automatic detection and supply your own modes. See the man pages or just google for more info. Or ask on askubuntu.com if you'd like someone to walk you through the process. For nvidia, if you'd like it to work without overriding the automatic detection, you can also supply your own edid replacement file. You have to create it using a Windows program though. I don't know where this is canonically documented, but google turned up this page which should give you a start - http://analogbit.com/fix_nvidia_edid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/689000 Title: Correct resolution (1280x720) not available, screen goes over the edges of the display -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
