Bug Description

I created a live usb stick with 8.10.

When booting on the laptop with the laptop's screen, there is no problem.

When booting it on my Dell connected to the docking station, the screen
resolution was not detected correctly. The laptop is able to go up to 1440*900,
while the monitor connected to the docking station only goes to 1280*1024.

I have not been able to determine which screen resolution 8.10 is trying to use yet.

are you implying that ubuntu should detect the fact that we're connected to a docking station and adjust the screen resolution accordingly? also, why do you mention the liveusb? does this work correctly in an installed system?

I don't care where I am connected to. The only thing I'm trying to say is that the liveusb created
intrepid USB sometimes doesn't adjust the screen resolution correctly. This doesn't happen on
a correctly installed system or with gutsy.
