2009-01-17 10:41:52 Bryce Harrington description Binary package hint: xorg On previous versions of Ubuntu, dpkg-reconfigure allowed me to specify monitor resolution etc. With hardy, this feature appears to have been removed. I believe that will encourage better detection code, and more usable front ends for less technical users. Nevertheless, I am right now left with 800x600 on my Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600, which has a native resolution of 1024x768 with only option to manually edit xorg.conf. Steps to show bug: Install a fresh copy of Ubuntu Hardy 8.04 on a Toshiba Satellite pro laptop. Observe the GUI gives maximum resolution of 800x600. Expected: Resolution should include 1024x768 native screen resolution. This resolution has shown to work where screen resolution set manually. lspci >error_report ; cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log >> error_report Binary package hint: xorg On previous versions of Ubuntu, dpkg-reconfigure allowed me to specify monitor resolution etc. With hardy, this feature appears to have been removed.
