[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 1448574] Re: Have to use nomodeset for install (new problem for new distro)
P1.70 04/21/2015 As I was saying before, this only happened since updating to 15.04 from 14.10. It has more to do with my television not specifying a resolution that is compatible with modeset. For example, it may say that it's 720p tops instead of 1280 x 720 but I'm not sure. I do know that it enjoys staying in a powered-on state while flipping the screen and its light on and off while making the power on and off sound when modeset doesn't work right. The television shows as a Samsung Electric Company 7 and is presently working at a resolution of 1360 x 768 and looks like crap at 1280 x 720. I'm not sure what has changed in the way that modeset functions, but this would be the second time this same issue has happened with this particular screen. Normally, I would say that it would be the screen at fault, but something in modeset was changed before that fixed the way it handled some of these screens that made it work perfectly. If someone could look at what changed that could make it have this problem, I would really appreciate it. Also, changed to confirmed as requested. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448574 Title: Have to use nomodeset for install (new problem for new distro) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1448574/+subscriptions ___ 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

D3m0n1q_733rz, thank you for reporting this and helping make Ubuntu better. As per http://asrock.com/mb/Intel/Fatal1ty%20X99%20Professional/?cat=Downloados=BIOS an update to your computer's buggy and outdated BIOS is available (1.70). If you update to this following https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BIOSUpdate does it change anything? If it doesn't, could you please both specify what happened, and provide the output of the following terminal command: sudo dmidecode -s bios-version sudo dmidecode -s bios-release-date For more on BIOS updates and linux, please see https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs#Bug_reporting_etiquette . Please note your current BIOS is already in the Bug Description, so posting this on the old BIOS would not be helpful. As well, you don't have to create a new bug report. Once the BIOS is updated, and the information above is provided, then please mark this report Status Confirmed. Thank you for your understanding. ** Tags added: bios-outdated-1.70 ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Low ** Changed in: xorg (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1448574 Title: Have to use nomodeset for install (new problem for new distro) To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1448574/+subscriptions ___ 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
