Comment 36 for bug 67369

For Gutsy, I've tested and verified the use of the new Screens and Graphics admin tool for widescreen setting. Indeed, this configuration was my primary test case for the tool. So I know that provides an adequate way of dealing with this bug.

However, I'm leaving this bug open because the ultimate goal is to have this configuration auto-detected as it is on laptops. The plan here is, once Hardy is started, to make the installer stop configuring the monitor, and just leave it to xorg henceforth. The situations where xorg would get it wrong but the installer would get it right are growing vanishingly small and can probably be better dealt with by displayconfig-gtk post-install anyway, and we can arrange to fold those fixes in directly back to xorg.
