I tried to revert to normal mode again but now I couldn't get i right and was stuck in 1024x768 and not 1280x800 as I wanted. I ran xrandr in a console which revealed: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1280 x 800 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*+ 50.0 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 56.2 640x480 59.9 HDMI-1 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 640x480 59.9 HDMI-2 connected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 1024x768 60.0 800x600 60.3 640x480 59.9 Which is odd since the Lenovo X200 doesn't have any HDMI ports but only a VGA port so I tried to disable them with: tjansson@euler:~$ xrandr --output HDMI-2 --off tjansson@euler:~$ xrandr --output HDMI-1 --off This worked and the screen returned to 1280 x 800.

2009-02-24 01:55:54 Bryce Harrington xrandr: statusexplanation Hmm, unfortunately without the Xorg.0.log from the case where the second HDMI appeared, it won't be possible to debug this issue. However, if you ever do reproduce it (and esp. if you can do so on Jaunty), feel free to reopen with that info. Having 'xrandr --verbose' and 'sudo get-edid|parse-edid' would help as well.
