I have to correct myself. "I have to launch an application first otherwise the resolution falls back down to 1920." <<< that is not correct: the issue seems also to be time related. If I wait after logging in the resolution will be more probable accepted.
Additionally some applications seem to make it impossible to get the higher resolution (for example HipChat). On the start the resolution will fall back immediately and it is impossible to increase it as long as the application is open. On applications like eog or the ubuntu system settings, the resolution will also fallback to the lower, but after execution the xrandr-commands again, the resolution will be accepted by the system. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1310745 Title: keep custom resolutions To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/unity-settings-daemon/+bug/1310745/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
