Bug Description

Binary package hint: xorg

This happens when my LCD HDTV connect via HDMI goes into sleep/power saving mode. On resume the screen is zoomed to a smaller area of the screen and i can not access the bottom and the far left of the screen.To get an idea it is like the zoom feature of the compiz package but zoom is not enabled and no mouse tracking occurs. This issue is correctee by resetting the Xserver. This problem renders most of the desktop inaccessible and therefore is very limiting after it had occured.

Description: Ubuntu 8.10
Release: 8.10

xorg:
  Installed: 1:7.4~5ubuntu3
  Candidate: 1:7.4~5ubuntu3
  Version table:
 *** 1:7.4~5ubuntu3 0
        500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com intrepid/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status

The expected behaviour was to return me to the desktop as i left the machine. As a side note my LCD screen used to detect before (8.04) and now is reported as unknown.

I've posted a new version of the -fglrx driver to our xorg-edgers PPA,
would you mind testing it either on Jaunty or Karmic and see if it
resolves this bug?

Get fglrx 8.620 here:

I am sorry for not getting back t you sooner, in the time this has been
open i had to return the screen the company I purchased it from due to a
fault. I now have a screen that will not go into sleep mode so I am
unable to test this for you right now.

Since the hardware is no longer available for doing troubleshooting with, we'll have to close the bug for now. However please feel free to reopen if you or anyone else has the same HW and can reproduce this issue using the latest development version of Ubuntu and is willing to do some troubleshooting with it.
