If I use the live cd and install, it works in 1024x768. If I try to set 1280x800 (my maximum resolution) displayconfig-gtk resets it to 640x480.

In displayconfig-gtk, manually setting the monitor (generic -> lcd panel 1280x800, don't forget to set the widescreen option) and then choosing 1280x800 works for me. Using an external monitor is another story... -- displayconfig-gtk recognizes the correct resolution but uses 640x480 instead https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/137792 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
