[Bug 437173] Re: [GM45] Bad resulution choice for mirror mode with two 16:10 displays
Hey allee, You filed this bug report against natty, but I see it's still open and doesn't appear to have much activity recently. So, now that oneiric is released and stable, this may be a good point for you to upgrade and re-test if this issue is still present there. If it's solved in the new release and you think it's worth backporting the fix, please indicate that. Or if having the fix in the new release is good enough, feel free to close out the bug (or let us know and we'll close it.) If it's not solved, leave the bug report open. I can't promise we'll get to it (we get way more bugs filed than we can usually get to), but your testing and feedback can help out if and when we do. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/437173 Title: [GM45] Bad resulution choice for mirror mode with two 16:10 displays To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/437173/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 437173] Re: [GM45] Bad resulution choice for mirror mode with two 16:10 displays
Yes, the bug is still in natty. Dell E6500 1400x900 and Dell U2410 1920x1200 both have aspect 16/10. Still, first common resolution algorithm is used, despite the fact that in this case a 4/3 one is the first math and both displays are therefore either scaled/black-bordered. == Visually ugly result :( There a little change as now the first common resolution is now 1152x864 (also 4/3) instead of 1024x768. Maybe because I've used now a new Dell Monitor Model with DP. root@lap-allee:~# DISPLAY=:0 XAUTHORITY=/var/run/xauth/A\:0-DHUlSa xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1152 x 864, maximum 8192 x 8192 LVDS1 connected 1152x864+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 331mm x 207mm 1440x900 60.0 + 59.9 40.0 1360x768 59.8 60.0 1152x864 60.0* 1024x768 60.0 800x60060.3 56.2 640x48059.9 VGA1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) HDMI1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP1 connected 1152x864+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 518mm x 324mm 1920x1200 60.0 + 1920x1080 60.0 1600x1200 60.0 1280x1024 75.0 60.0 1152x864 75.0* 1024x768 75.1 60.0 800x60075.0 60.3 640x48075.0 60.0 720x40070.1 HDMI2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP2 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) DP3 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) TV1 unknown connection (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 848x48030.0 + 640x48030.0 + 1024x768 30.0 800x60030.0 root@lap-allee:~# -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/437173 Title: [GM45] Bad resulution choice for mirror mode with two 16:10 displays -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This bug report was filed against an old version of Ubuntu. Can you confirm whether this is still an issue in natty? Please also ensure this bug has tags for each Ubuntu release that the bug is confirmed as affecting. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = New ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/437173 Title: [GM45] Bad resulution choice for mirror mode with two 16:10 displays -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

While I agree that this could be better, this is not something we can fix in ubuntu or just ask upstream to fix. Two possible approaches that may have some chance of reaching the people who actually implement this: - File a bug on bugs.freedesktop.org (Product: DRI, Component: DRM/intel) - Join and and email the mailing list intel-...@freedesktop.org. Note that emails from non-developers and especially those that are not to-the-point are frequently ignored.

[Bug 437173] Re: [GM45] Bad resulution choice for mirror mode with two 16:10 displays
** Description changed: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel With two 16:10 displays, a Dell Latitude E6500 laptop (1440 x 900) and a Dell 24'' TFT ( 1920 x 1200), the intel gfx driver chooses the 4:3 resolution of 1024x748 for both. Visual result is a low 4:3 transformed to fullscreen 16:10, this looks pretty poor. It's the first matching common resolution according to xrandr output, nevertheless ... ...much better would be: If both monitors have the same aspect ratio (e.g. 16:10 or 4:3) choose the smaller resolution as the common base and scale to the size bigger monitor.(Because only one monitor needs scaling it should even save tons of GPU cycles. With the proposed algorithm, one output runs with the 'perfect' native resolution and only one is transformed, with taspect ratio is presered! Currently base resolution is: lower than min. of both display, _both_ are transformed, aspect ratio is not kept.
