** Description changed:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
External monitor (24'', 1900x1200), connected via DVI (of the docking
station) to a
DellLatitude D830 (15.4'', 1680 x 1050). The laptop lid closed and BIOS set
to 'prefer
docking station gfx if available.
On the external monitor I see the following bugs:
0) after booting I see a KDM login greeter with fonts and icons way
tooooo big.
(Monitor does autoscaling). See 0th.Xorg.0.log
I assume that the intel driver uses settings of laptop display instead
the external
monitor settings.
1) then after login I can set with krandrtray to 1920x1200, but fonts are
still too big.
While pixel number is corrrect now , the screen dimension (in mm)
used is still of
the laptop display and from the external monitor. See
1st.Xorg.0.log, 1st.xrandr.log,
and 1st.xdpyinfo.log
When I then login the KDM login greeter looks perfect (# of pixels and size)
and after
login again and using krandrtray to switch to 1920 everything looks fine:
