Bug Description

The resolution of my screen, SONY CPD-210EST, is sticked at 640x480@60Hz with the live CD of Ubuntu and Kubuntu, and with the install CD. It's impossible to change the resoltion without tuning xorg.conf.

The screen is correctly detected (the Identifier is good in xorg.conf), but I must add the horizontal and vertical refresh.

        Identifier "CPD-210EST"
        Option "DPMS"
        HorizSync 31-70
        VertRefresh 50-150

I can't test anymore on my disk. I just test with the last beta2 live CD.
Here is the xorg.conf (sorry I didn't find a way to attach a file)

Could you please (from the LiveCD) kill X and attach the output of

xresprobe nv

Also.. is the monitor connected to a DVI output by any chance?

Thanks
Fabio

Sory, I didn't have a DVI output.

But I have two normal ouputs, and I just try the second one (I didn't think of that). With the beta 2 live CD, I have a 1024x768@60Hz resolution, which is far better.
It's not the best one, but I can adjust my screen with system settings under kubuntu.

I feel a little bit stupid, sorry (and I didn't find the way to kill X under the live CD...). I think you can close this bug.
