According to the data that the monitor itself reports as its capabilities in EDID, the monitor has a 17.7" diagonal measurement (calculate it yourself):
(II) intel(0): Supported detailed timing: (II) intel(0): clock: 157.5 MHz Image Size: 350 x 262 mm It seems your monitor manufacturer's engineers report different numbers than the marketing department does. Anyway, X seems to be reporting the data accurately, as it should. Perhaps gnome-control-center needs to be less accurate and more like that marketing department. ;-) ** Summary changed: - wrong monitor detected + wrong monitor dimension shown ** Package changed: xorg (Ubuntu) => gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) -- wrong monitor dimension shown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/465717 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
