I'm also getting this issue. (1440x900 monitor being incorrectly given 1280x1024 resolution). I filed LP: #638103 as I thought it was a gdm problem, since I started getting the issue after upgrading gdm a couple days ago.
gdm (2.30.5-0ubuntu4) maverick; urgency=low * debian/gdm.upstart: Do not already fire on a framebuffer device. When a real DRM driver gets loaded later on, X will be started too early to catch it. This should go a long way towards fixing LP: #615549 -- Martin Pitt <martin.p...@ubuntu.com> Mon, 13 Sep 2010 15:23:24 +0200 Of course, I don't really know for sure. -- Maverick Beta update changed screen resolution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/640059 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
