Title:
Screen resolution no longer works
Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
My display's native resolution is 2560×1440 pixels. Prior to, I
think, Saucy I could only reach this resolution by adding it using
xrandr, and then calling xrandr on boot/login to select that
resolution. The Display preferences did not show any higher options
than 1920×1200.
In Saucy, the native resolution just worked, and I could stop using
xrandr. It also worked in Trusty in the alpha releases, up to (and I
think including) beta-1. But today (this is not an April's fool, is
it?) I rebooted after an upgrade, and found myself back in 1920×1200.
Again, the Display preferences list that resolution as the highest
possible. But this time, attempts to ‘xrandr --addmode’ my native
resolution failed.
The error message wasn't very helpful; I'll try to reproduce it later
but it throws my display into yet a lower resolution that's hard to
work with.
