As I said earlier, every once in a while, coming back from a blank screensave mode, the monitor will have the correct resolution and aspect ratio. I discovered that the monitor has an "information" menu selection available using the buttons below the screen. When it is in a good state is says that Resolution: 1680x1050 H.Frequency: 65.2 kHz V. Frequency: 59.9 Hz Pixel Clock: 146.0 MHz When I enter those values in the modeline generator fields it suggests the following: Modeline "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" 134.03 1680 1712 2216 2248 945 964 973 993 A height of 945? Where did it come up with that? I wasn't successful getting it to give me a modeline with 1680x1050. I tried entering a modeline with the 146.0 MHz Pixel Clock by hand -- the xorg.conf file that I came up with is attached. Logging out and back in again gave me the black border on the left, i.e. not widescreen. The monitor information menu reports a different Pixel Clock than what I tried to specify when it's in this state: Resolution: 1680x1050 H. Frequency: 65.1 V. Frequency: 59.8O Pixel Clock: 119.7 Have a made an error in xorg.conf, or is it ignoring the file for some reason? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can give me. I don't want to believe that XP can handle this monitor/graphics-card pair, but Ubuntu cannot. ** Attachment added: "xorg.conf" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/11417784/xorg.conf -- erratic widescreen intel gma 3000 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182898 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
