[Bug 27508] Re: Only 60 Hz display refresh available from gnome screen resolution utility
no Radeon, i tried different graph-cards, different chipsets. i believe the problem is, that ubuntu cannot regognize the monitor, and instead of letting the user choose the features of the monitor, it sets just everything to default for LCD-Displays. but there are still people using Crt-displays, where 60Hz V-freq is absolutely unusable. the linux wich allways could do that right, was mandrake. but i prefer to use ubuntu! dear developers, please correct this. please. it's the only problem with ubuntu, wich stays since years. kind regards erich -- Only 60 Hz display refresh available from gnome screen resolution utility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27508 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

On freshly installed + updated 7.10 64-bit there are still issues. Monitor detection fails, but I can select exact type within the 'screens and graphics' GUI (iiyama VM pro 510). This causes load of modline to be added to xorg.conf Trouble is they are not accessible - even after reboot.

[Bug 27508] Re: Only 60 Hz display refresh available from gnome screen resolution utility
After disabling the nvidia driver and re-selecting my monitor - the refresh rate choices are different, but even if I select 85Hz, log out and in again - it doesn't work. Interestingly, the other refresh rate choices have vanished from the 'screens and graphic' section leaving only 75 Hz. (the only choice available from the 'screen resolution' gui) With the nvidia driver, the choices were all much lower eg. 50 54. ** Attachment added: xorg.conf http://launchpadlibrarian.net/14519015/xorg.conf -- Only 60 Hz display refresh available from gnome screen resolution utility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27508 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I have a similar problem: After upgrading to 7.10, my X11 display does not work anymore: The LCD monitor complains that the signal is out of range and tells that it is [EMAIL PROTECTED], (the monitor is somewhat older, and can't display that. It worked well with feisty...)

I'm using a nvidia gpu and I've the same problem with the resolution change applet... If I use the nv driver it is limited to only 60 Hz screen resolution - no more, no less. If I install the nvidia driver, i can change the resolution to 50, 51 and 56 Hz from the applet, but from nvidia-settings I can change it to whatever value I wrote in the xorg.conf file.

[Bug 27508] Re: Only 60 Hz display refresh available from gnome screen resolution utility
I have a similar problem, with a different graphics system. Could this be related to the bug reported here? If not, I might report it elsewhere. I have a SiS 730 graphics system, which means its on-board graphics, on a SiS motherboard. I think its not a very good graphics system. The highest resolution I can get is 1280 * 1024, and its only 60 Hz! I am using Ubuntu 7.4. I have a dual-boot system, so I can boot into Windows XP on the same computer. In Windows XP, I can get 1280 * 1024 at 60 Hz or 75 Hz or 85 Hz. In Windows XP I can also get 1600 * 1200 at various frequencies up to 75 Hz. I must admit that the good resolutions and frequencies that I can get in Windows XP are only possible when using 16 bit color depth. I.e. 16 bits per pixel. When I set color depth to 32 bits per pixel then I can only get 1280 * 1024 at 60 Hz, the same as in Ubuntu. (I don't know if this is relevant or not, it may not be.) My monitor is not the problem, it is capable of much better. When I use it on another computer, it can use 1600 * 1200 at 100 Hz. This may not count as a bug. It may just be that the app in Gnome for changing the monitor resolution assumes that everyone wants to use 32 bit color depth. This app doesn't offer me the ability to change the color depth. But for me personally, with my graphics system, I'd like to be offered a higher refresh rate than 60 Hz, even if I have to accept a lower color depth with it. I have heard that I can probably fix this problem by editing xorg.conf. That may be able to solve my problem. But I wonder if this is a bug, and whether it is likely to be fixed. I'm a Linux newbie, so I'm curious about whether this is a bug, and what happens when a bug is reported. If anyone wants to see the contents of my config file, tell me what to type into the terminal. -- Only 60 Hz display refresh available from gnome screen resolution utility https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/27508 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
