Bug Description
Using a MiniDP to DVI (active) adapter my native resolution was obtainable (1980*1080) up untill the update this morning.
The updates of this morning included:
linux-image-
linux-headers-
linux-generic (3.0.0.15.17, 3.0.0.16.19) (update)
indicator-multiload (update)
linux-headers-
linux-image-generic (3.0.0.15.17, 3.0.0.16.19) (update)
linux-doc (3.0.0.15.17, 3.0.0.16.19) (update)
linux-libc-dev (3.0.0.15.17, 3.0.0.16.19) (update)
Now the maximum resolution available for this connector is 1440*900.
Which used to be the case about 1,5 month ago as well.

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https:/ /wiki.ubuntu. com/KernelMainl ineBuilds . Please test the latest v3.3 kernel[1] (Not a kernel in the daily directory). Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs- upstream- testing' tag(Only that one tag, please leave the other tags). This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs- upstream- testing' text.
If this bug is fixed by the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel- fixed-upstream- KERNEL- VERSION' . For example, if kernel version 3.3-rc2 fixed the issue, the tag would be: 'kernel- fixed-upstream- v3.3-rc2' .
If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel- bug-exists- upstream' .
If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel- unable- to-test- upstream' .
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".
Thanks in advance.
