only one resolution is available

[Alexandr Ciornii]

Only one resolution is available, 1280x1024, 60 Hz, which is not optimal resolution for this monitor, Samtron 55B.
DDC and EDID show bigger list of resolutions. Error appeared after upgrading to Ubuntu 10.11 from 10.04. Second upgrade, to 11.11 did not change anything.

Second upgrade was to 11.04

Alexandr Ciornii, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xorg-server REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.

I no longer has access to this hardware, so I don't know. I think that 12.04 did not had this problem, bit I can' remember exactly.
