Thanks for your bug. Could you run xrandr and copy the log to a comment? The interface is only a wrapper around xrand, the issue is likely to be due to xorg ** Changed in: control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Medium = Low Assignee: (unassigned) = Ubuntu Desktop Bugs Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- Screen Resolution tool (gnome-display-properties) does not change refresh rate, resolution in Dapper https://launchpad.net/bugs/36946 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs

[Bug 36946] Re: Screen Resolution tool (gnome-display-properties) does not change refresh rate, resolution in Dapper
I have the same problem. I have a laptop which I use in several locations where I have several different external monitors that I like to use alongside the laptop's panel. Last year I installed Breezy and added these lines to the Section Device for ATI Technologies, Inc. Radeon Mobility M7 LW [Radeon Mobility 7500]: Option AGPMode 4 Option AGPFastWrite True Option EnablePageFlipTrue Option MergedFB True Option CRT2Position RightOf Option MetaModes 1400x1050 1400x1050-1280x1024 1400x1050-800x600 1400x1050-640x480 When I dist-upgraded to Dapper last week , initially X would not start at all. Something had overwritten xorg.conf. I re-added the lines above and as a result I can use any of the external monitors *IF* I start X with that external monitor connected. However, I cannot use System|Preferences|Screen_Resolution_Preferences|Resolution to change the resolution. When I click Apply, the dialog box closes and, simply, nothing happens. xrandr -s does work, though. -- Screen Resolution tool (gnome-display-properties) does not change refresh rate, resolution in Dapper https://launchpad.net/malone/bugs/36946 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
