After installing my desktop is shifted to the left and up (can't see that part of the screen). That seems to indicate the wrong resolution or frequency to me. I'm using DVI output and a DVI to HDMI cable (monitor was sold as a monitor, not TV). 1920x1200 is default resolution and it looks like that is what is being displayed, but I think it is using 50.0 Hz (* marks it in xrandr -q output, and is only option for that resolution) instead of something closer to 60 or 59.
I've tried reinstalling, but my screen works fine while inside the installer environment or the "try out Ubuntu" option (whole desktop displayed). I originally had my system working with an old video card, but it broke after switching to a newer card (from Nvidia 8800 GTX to Nvidia 260 216). More recently I replaced the 260 with an Nvidia GTX 480. All of these have worked fine inside Windows 7. This originally showed up in Ubuntu 10.10 with the latest Nvidia drivers (I manually installed newer versions to match what CUDA 4.0 SDK wanted). The fresh install was Ubuntu 11.10 and whatever default driver it offers. |
