2011-11-09 03:24:27 Bryce Harrington xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu): status New Incomplete
2011-12-16 03:22:18 Bryce Harrington description When booting with an external monitor attache, the external monitor shows a stretched-out display, which the laptop monitor shows two black bars on each side of a lesser-resolution GDM display. This problem persists after logging in and is illustrated by these pictures: GDM display: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/80418888/IMG_20110920_091338.jpg In-session display: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/80418884/IMG_20110920_091318.jpg It's rather common to boot with the screen connected, so the use case for this really is problematic as the Ubuntu splash doesn't look right when a workstation is started like this. I happen to be in an environment where everyone runs Windows and cosmetic details like this really undermine confidence in Ubuntu. This was also tested with a 11.10 nightly 3 weeks ago. I have to use the monitors utility every-time the system is rebooted to adjust resolutions.
