[Bug 502929] Re: screen resolution not renewed after switching on display

2010-05-14 Thread 0xD4
Dear all,

I would like to report that the screen resolution is not set up properly in 
Kubuntu Lucid.
I have 2 setups : one laptop and one notebook with an external screen, all 3 of 
different brands.
It used to be set up properly automatically after login by krandrtray in Jaunty.
krandrtray does not do this any more in Lucid.

I do not know who of xorg, kdm or krandrtray should be responsible for setting 
up the optimum screen resolution.
I fixed it by adding the following line at the end of /etc/kde4/kdm/Xsetup,
which the manpage of kdm says is the "script to run as root before the login 
dialog appears" :

for d in `xrandr | sed -re '/ connected/! d;s/ .*//'`;do xrandr --output
$d --auto;done

See the following pages with konqueror for quick references:
man:/kdm
man:/xrandr
info:/sed/Addresses
info:/sed/Common Commands
info:/sed/The "s" Command

[Bug 464743] Re: error: sparse file not allowed

I had the same issue.

I use reiserfs too.
> With reiserfs you can mount the filesystem with notail option
Indeed, adding "-o notail" after "mount" in the command fixes it.
See also the note about the notail option in the man page of mount.

But the following pages (at least) do not mention it :
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Grub2#Reinstalling%20from%20LiveCD
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Grub2#Recover%20Grub%202%20via%20LiveCD

I think they should. But (again) they are difficult to edit.
