Running Hardy Alpha 5 with latest updates. I am still seeing this bug or so I think... Here is my setup : A laptop in its dock with an external monitor plugged on the DVI port of the dock. The "native" resolution of my monitor is 1280x1024@60hz But in fact, I only get 1152x864@75Hz (I can change it using the Gnome RANDR applet for example). Here is the output of xresprobe : $ sudo xresprobe intel id: res: 1280x800 freq: disptype: lcd/lvds xresprobe doesn't seem to see the DVI monitor. Here is the output of ddcprobe (seems fine) : $ sudo ddcprobe vbe: VESA 3.0 detected. oem: Intel(r)GM965/PM965/GL960 Graphics Chip Accelerated VGA BIOS vendor: Intel Corporation product: Intel(r)GM965/PM965/GL960 Graphics Controller Hardware Version 0.0 memory: 7616kb mode: 1280x1024x256 mode: 1280x1024x64k mode: 1280x1024x16m mode: 1024x768x256 mode: 1024x768x64k mode: 1024x768x16m mode: 640x480x16m mode: 800x600x64k mode: 800x600x16m mode: 640x480x256 mode: 800x600x256 mode: 640x480x64k edid: edid: 1 3 id: 3514 eisa: AUO3514 serial: 00000000 manufacture: 1 2007 input: analog signal. screensize: 26 16 gamma: 2.200000 dpms: RGB, no active off, no suspend, no standby dtiming: 1280x800@59 monitorid: AUO monitorid: B121EW03 V5 Here is my xorg.conf : $ cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf # xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file) # # This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using # values from the debconf database. # # Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page. # (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.) # # This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only* # if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg # package. # # If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated # again, run the following command: # sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Generic Keyboard" Driver "kbd" Option "XkbRules" "xorg" Option "XkbModel" "pc105" Option "XkbLayout" "fr" Option "XkbVariant" "oss" EndSection Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Configured Mouse" Driver "mouse" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Configured Monitor" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Monitor "Configured Monitor" Device "Configured Video Device" EndSection Here is the ouput of xrandr -q : $ xrandr -q Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 864, maximum 1280 x 1280 VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 261mm x 163mm 1280x800 60.0*+ 60.0 1280x768 60.0 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 640x480 59.9 TMDS-1 connected 1152x864+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 376mm x 301mm 1280x1024 60.0 + 75.0 59.9 1152x864 74.8* 1024x768 75.1 71.9 70.1 60.0 832x624 74.6 800x600 72.2 75.0 60.3 56.2 640x480 75.0 72.8 66.7 60.0 720x400 70.1 TV connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1024x768 30.0 800x600 30.0 848x480 30.0 640x480 30.0 I have also attached my Xorg.0.log PS : If the external monitor is plugged on the VGA port, it works like expected.
