Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xorg
Xorg expected to start at 1024x768 85 Hz, and Xorg.log reports what this
refresh rate choosed,
but actually I have 1024x768 60 Hz (in monitor OSD and noticeable at once
because of CRT).
I cannot fix refresh rate immediately with xrandr --rate 85, this have
no effect. For success I have to switch to another rate and then to 85
Hz.
And after any change of videomode (e.g. launching fullscreen app with
resolution another than desktop
resolution, switching to vt) refresh rate resets to 60 Hz but still reported by
utilities as 85 Hz
Updating xorg from standard repositories has no effect
P.S. Problem do not appear in 6.06 Dapper Drake (and Windows XP too)
Radeon 8500 LE (R200 chip), 15" CRT Compal m557, driver radeon
Kubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon, xorg 1:7.2-5ubuntu13, xserver-xorg-video-ati
1:6.7.195-1ubuntu2
** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
