Saying that this is a "harder than you might think" problem to fix is a cop out. How hard is it to add a manual configuration tab to the screen resolution app so you can tell X Windows to use "X" type monitor settings when its auto-configuration method gets it wrong. No, this not only needs to be fixed it "must" be fixed. The feature should never have been removed in the first place it was a bad call to do so.
Let me put it this way, this missing feature is "hindering" the adoption of Ubuntu by new users, period. Fixing this should be high-priority, no excuses. The only acceptable outcome is to fix this before the next release of Ubuntu, not doing so is a failure of the development community to listen to the needs of the user base. -- Michael "TheZorch" Haney thezo...@gmail.com http://thezorch.googlepages.com/home Skype: thezorch (Voice and/or Chat) AIM: thezo...@gmail.com Yahoo IM: zorchhaney ICQ: 343230252 GoogleTalk: thezorch MSN Messeger: haneymich...@hotmail.com Free Your Computer from the Tyranny of Microsoft www.ubuntu.com -- can't configure display resolution (monitor, graphics card) manually in gui https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/240916 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
