Public bug reported:
On boot, xubuntu produces the error "Input Not Supported" floating all
over the screen. At first it didn't get past this error and I couldn't
boot. Now it still produces the error message but somehow gets past it
and boots. My monitor is Acer X193W LCD. I installed xubuntu from CD; I
did not do an upgrade from xubuntu 11.04; I have no idea whether that
might make a difference.
Internet searches reveal that Acer monitors seem to be problematic. Also
that "Input Not Supported" has to do with not being able to correctly
identify the monitor.
The live CD worked okay. But it tended to set my monitor at 1440*900
75Hz, which is wrong according to the manual. It should be 1440*900 60Hz
max says the manual.
I hope you get this problem fixed in 12.04, for xubuntu, ubuntu, and all
the other ubuntus.
If it is not possible for the OS to properly detect all monitors, could
there be such a thing as asking the user for information about the
monitor when it runs into the "Input Not Supported" error? And testing
it.
