Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-amd
GeodeLX with the video-amd driver does not support native resolutions of wide monitors (1920x1200, 1680x1050, 1440x900, etc). I have tracked it down to code in the LXValidMode() code that checks each mode against the Cimarron table. This table only has standard VESA resolutions (along with special ones for panels). http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-driver-geode/2008-February/000254.html Jordan and I have been bouncing ideas back and forth about a patch for this. The discussion is here. I hope to have a patch we both agree on soon. For now I am attaching a series of patches that fixes the problem for the 2.7.7.6 driver in my setup. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-amd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- xserver-xorg-video-amd: wide resolutions don't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/197069 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
