[Bug 69763] Re: VESA driver does not work on MacBook Pro: image distorted, slanted
Vesa does not support widescreen resolutions.

I used the Feisy install live CD and my screen is now working. The resolution is 1400x1050 instead of 1680x1050 for my MacBook pro 17.

I've tried Feisty Beta (both livecd and install) and the problem seems to be gone, although now my resolution is set to 1400x1050 for some reason (maybe this is the point?) even though there're only 1680x1050 mode entries in xorg.conf.

Feisty has a new vesa driver, and I've had success reports from X1** users. You should try that. ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-vesa (Ubuntu) Status: Unconfirmed = Needs Info -- VESA driver does not work on MacBook Pro: image distorted, slanted https://launchpad.net/bugs/69763 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 69763] Re: VESA driver does not work on MacBook Pro: image distorted, slanted
I have exactly the same problem on Asus z96j, which does also have an x1600 Mobility at 1680x1050 (another odd resolution). I haven't tried livecd's for a while though - I always install the system with the alternative installer, so I have only experienced it just after the installation. I have tried Feisty Herd 3 recently and the same problem persists although easily fixable (for me) with installation of the proprietary drivers, at described in the wiki. Does anyone know whether this is upstream and will be fixed in Xorg 7.2 or something like that? -- VESA driver does not work on MacBook Pro: image distorted, slanted https://launchpad.net/bugs/69763 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
