Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue for you. Can you try with the latest Ubuntu release?

vesa can't do widescreen Attach /var/log/Xorg.0log you get from intrepid alpha5 with the default xorg.conf. oh and don't assign bugs by random.

The result is incorrect resolution and blurred fonts. + Ubuntu 7.10, 8.04 and now Intrepid Aplpha5 fail to detect LCD panel on Asus F5N laptop. The result is incorrect resolution and blurred fonts. In detail. Xorg detects LCD panel as "Generic PnP Monitor" with 800x600 resolution whereas in fact it is 1280x800 WXGA 98x98 DPI LCD panel. As a result, the maximum allowed resolution is 800x600 with vesa driver and subpixel dithering turned off by default. One has to manually configure screen in System->Administration->Screens and Graphics to change display to Generic LCD panel, either 1024x768 or 1280x800. In either case the maximum resolution you are allowed to choose is 1024x768. If you check "Widescreen Monitor" option and then select 1280x800, it will fail the test and you are back to 1024x768 mode. Furthermore, this 15.4" WXGA panel is very sensitive to correct DPI settings in order to produce clear fonts. One has to make sure there is a line "DisplaySize 331 208" in xorg.conf Monitor section. Then after installing the proper nvidia-glx-new driver (which should be installed by default really, as nv cannot handle GeForce 7000M card yet) I have to comment that line out and replace it with Option "UseEdidDpi""FALSE" Option "DPI" "98 x 98" in xorg.conf Device section. This is not very convenient really, and is hard to figure out to unexperienced user. What the user sees is that: - 1. Ubuntu splash at 640x480 + 1. Ubuntu splash at 800x600 2. Initial 800x600 login script and desktop 3. Resolution is only configurable to 1024x768 max - 4. Wide screen option produces complete mess - 5.

[Bug 200229] Re: LCD panel is not recognized on Asus F5N laptop
This issue propagates to Intrepid Alpha5 with 2.6.27-* kernel. In fact, when booting from desktop Live CD, the panel can only be configured to 1024x768 resolution. Pushing it to 1024x800 widescreen fails with both VESA and nv drivers. By default the screen is still being recognized as 'Plug and Play 800x600 @ 60Hz' supported by VESA driver. -- LCD panel is not recognized on Asus F5N laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200229 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
