[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 433142] Re: geode driver do not display 1024x600 on (K)UNR Karmic
I upgraded my twinhead e10 to Maverick (clean install) and things worked beautifully "out of the box" (geode version installed by default is 2.11.9-5). It booted up in 640x480 but after selecting 1024x600 (these are the only two options, fine by me!) and then "Make default" & "apply" it now boots up with the correct resolution every time. And there was much rejoicing! Thanks everyone for your help, I really appreciate it.

Wonderful! I can confirm that with 2.11.9-5 on my TwinHead Twinmate e10 I can now get the correct ratio. However, It defaults to 640x480 (4:3), which I quickly changed to 1024x600 (16:9) ;) [These are now the only two options] When I boot up, the login screen still displays skewy, with the 4:3 ratio (which doesn't happen when I have the xorg.conf file) Cheers, Jenny (phpmonkey) -- geode driver do not display 1024x600 on (K)UNR Karmic https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/433142 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-geode in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

Hi Frank, As I mentioned, I have no problem getting a 1024x600 resolution with a custom xorg.conf (which I have supplied previously, it's in the attachments section). I believe we are trying to see whether it is possible to have this ratio available by default (without an xorg.conf file).

Hello, If I run "ps -aux | grep Xorg" I get the error message "bad ps syntax, perhaps a bogus '-'? See http://procps.sf.net/faq.html"; which says "According to the POSIX and UNIX standards, the above command asks to display all processes with a TTY (generally the commands users are running) plus all processes owned by a user named "x". If that user doesn't exist, then ps will assume you really meant "ps aux". The warning is given to gently break you of a habit that will cause you trouble if a user named "x" were created." which doesn't mean much to me :o) Anyway, after the error message it outputs a line that looks like this: jenny 0.0 0.03252 YYY pts/0 S+ 0.00 grep Xorg With a number that is different every time the command is run (and YYY changes sometimes). Neither killing 3252 nor any of the numbers does anything, it says "no such process" each time...
