Fabian, I'm sorry, but I can't remember and can no longer test.

I am not the original reporter, but I can confirm that the mga driver (Matrox G450) does not find the correct resolution either in Lucid. I used the alternate installer, because the desktop CD has the same problem. (The monitor displays 'cannot display this video mode') This machine has never before run Ubuntu, so I don't know about older versions.

Same problem with a HP Brio which has a Matrox Graphics, Inc. MGA G200 AGP rev 3. Xubuntu 9.04 graphical installation fails.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 373281] Re: Xorg Cannot Determine Monitor Resolution on Bootup in Jaunty
Hi, same problem here. I was using ubuntu 8.04 desktop with HP Proliant Ml115 which uses Matrox G200 for vga, and 1280x1024 LCD monitor. Everything worked perfectly on 8.04 but after upgrading to 8.10 with update-manager -d and reboot, display resolution droped to 1024x768. Then I dived in Display Preferences to fix resolution, but 1280x1024 was missing. After upgrading 8.04 to 8.10 I tried upgrading 8.10 to 9.04, but the resolution was still wrong. Clean install of 9.04 didn't helped me either. -- Xorg Cannot Determine Monitor Resolution on Bootup in Jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373281 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-mga 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
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 373281] Re: Xorg Cannot Determine Monitor Resolution on Bootup in Jaunty
** Description changed: Binary package hint: xorg Release of Ubuntu: 9.04 I performed a clean install of Ubuntu 9.04 of an HP Vectra VL, PIII, 550MHz, 0.5GB RAM, integrated Matrox video controller machine. The install seemed to go on with no problems. Upon first reboot the Ubuntu splash screen came up and the progress bar went to about 95%. The screen would then blank out as it prepared to go into X. However, the server could never find a usable monitor resolution. After trying several a dialog box came up saying that Ubuntu was in low resolution mode and it gave several options to try to fix this. I performed the following to try to fix the issue: • Reinstall gdm. • Reinstall xorg. • Determine driver of video card - mga - and edit xorg.conf to include that. • Tried vesa driver. • Edited xorg.conf (several times) to try to give it specific modes to try. Xorg.conf, originally, simply had empty placeholder sections for all things. • Took splash screen out of boot process. Nothing would change the behavior of gdm. However, if I stopped gdm and invoked startx from the command line X would come up with no problem at an 800x600 resolution. I then tried to do a clean install of Ubuntu 8.04.2 LTS to see if that would work. It did. Smooth as silk, on first reboot, right out of the (alt) CD.

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 373281] Re: Xorg Cannot Determine Monitor Resolution on Bootup in Jaunty
Martin, sorry for the delay. Busy weekend. The monitor is a Envision EN-710e, a CRT 4:3 monitor. The computer is an HP Vectra VL, 533MHz Pentium III with 1GB RAM. Single monitor connected. No TV-out cable. I have the system working now via a video card instead of the in-board MGA video circutry on the motherboard. The xorg.conf that works under Ubuntu 8.04 is below: Section Monitor Identifier Configured Monitor EndSection Section Video Device Identifier Configured Video Device EndSection Section Display Identifier Configured Display EndSection There really is nothing there. Running Ubuntu 9.04 with the video card the xorg.conf file is completely empty.
