Re: [Bug 95863] Re: Intel 945 Video 1680X1050 resolution display outside physical dimensions of the monitor
A few months got a nice e-mail from Timo Aaltonen with a link to his ftp site with an experimental driver which works: http://users.tkk.fi/~tjaalton/xorg72/new/ For a detailed discussion of the issues related to Intel and 1680x1050 see the Mandriva site: http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Releases/Mandriva/2007.1/Experimental_Intel_driver Installed this in Mandriva, it works excellent. Probably this solution of Mandriva wil also work for external monitors. Definite/final solution for these issues seems to be the upcoming x-org 7.3 Regards, Wim Michael Greifeneder wrote: > I have the same problem as described by Directrix1.

First: Congratulations it works !!! What did I do: Kubuntu live CD (beta1) Upgraded all packages with an X* Removed the old i810 driver Installed the new driver Result Kubuntu is the first of >10 distributions I tested which gives the correct 1680x1050 resolution. Circles are round, fonts not fuzzy and the display is within the physical dimensions of the monitor Thanks xjnumb wrote: > Thanks for response.

Re: [Bug 95863] Re: Intel 945 Video 1680X1050 resolution display outside physical dimensions of the monitor
To get everything oke it is probably necessary to have x-org 7.3 (RC) and new drivers for intel from x-org installed as well as xrandr 1.2. See the extensive discussion provided by Mandriva for their Spring release which also offers detailed instruction to get everything installed separately from x-org 7.2 in their Gnome version. http://wiki.mandriva.com/en/Releases/Mandriva/2007.1/Experimental_Intel_driver [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > The 1.9.94 version got installed today, but xrandr still has no effect. > Does this work for anyone else?

Another succes story for you: http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=20152.0 http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=18667.0 See the last entry in the last posting (refers to Kubuntu) Before Kubuntu I used PCLinuxOS (prefer this except the display drivers over Kubuntu) Timo Aaltonen wrote: > Splendid, hopefully it get's in Feisty. > > ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting (Ubuntu) >Status: Needs Info => Confirmed > > -- Intel 945 Video 1680X1050 resolution display outside physical dimensions of the monitor https://launchpad.net/bugs/95863 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
