[Bug 460510] Re: X.Org X server --Nvidia (Nouveau) display driver does not recognize screen resolution
Not sure, if this is relevant here. I had a long time ago similar trouble with this monitor Samsung Syncmaster 226bw when using nv driver with debian lenny. Seems the monitor had problems with its edid. At the time when the following patch became applied, my problems dissapeared: http://archive.netbsd.se/?ml=xorg-commit&a=2007-04&m=3595489 http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/X11server/X11server-48.4/Xquartz /xorg-server-1.3.0-apple22/hw/xfree86/modes/xf86EdidModes.c I wonder if nouveau driver also includes above patch.

[Bug 460510] Re: X.Org X server --Nvidia (Nouveau) display driver does not recognize screen resolution
As it currently stands, you are not actually *using* the nouveau driver. Because it is still (kindof) experimental, you need to manually specify "nouveau" as the driver you want to load in your xorg.conf - the nouveau driver will *not* be auto-loaded. Simply creating an /etc/X11/xorg.conf file with the contents """ Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Driver "nouveau" EndSection """ should cause X to load the nouveau driver. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) Status: New => Incomplete -- X.Org X server --Nvidia (Nouveau) display driver does not recognize screen resolution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/460510 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
