[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 380009] Re: [Needs quirk] Huge font in GDM on HP Compaq nc8430
I have the same bug in a Packard Bell EasyNote MX35 with an Intel 945GM (I guess). The problem could be solved specifying the DPI by hand to the X server in the /etc/gdm/gdm.conf. You have to change the lines: [server-Standard] name=Standard server command=/usr/bin/X -br -audit 0 by... [server-Standard] name=Standard server command=/usr/bin/X -br -dpi 75 -audit 0 -- [Needs quirk] Huge font in GDM on HP Compaq nc8430 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380009 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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, I just booted the Karmic Alpha 6 live cd to try to reproduce this bug. Since the live cd does not show the gdm login screen I have no visual confirmation but Xorg.0.log, xdpyinfo and xrandr all still report a wrong size or dpi. xdpyinfo: default screen number:0 number of screens:1 screen #0: dimensions:1280x800 pixels (289x21 millimeters) resolution:112x968 dots per inch depths (7):24, 1, 4, 8, 15, 16, 32 root window id:0x66 depth of root window:24 planes xrandr: Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1280 x 800, maximum 1280 x 1280 VGA-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) LVDS connected 1280x800+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 289mm x 21mm 1280x800 60.1*+ 1280x720 59.9 1152x768 59.8 1024x768 59.9 800x60059.9 640x48059.4 DVI-0 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) ** Attachment added: Xorg.0.log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/32358376/Xorg.0.log -- [Needs quirk] Huge font in GDM on HP Compaq nc8430 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380009 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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 jhorstmann, Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. You reported this bug a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering is this still an issue for you? Can you try with the latest development release of Ubuntu? (ISO CD images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/) If it remains an issue, could you also attach a new /var/log/Xorg.0.log? Thanks in advance. [This is an automated message.

The attached patch against xorg-server_1.6.0-0ubuntu14 fixes the problem for me. This is my first time working with debian patches and quilt, so please correct me if anything is wrong with this patch. ** Attachment added: Added a quirk to fix this problem http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27119078/178_edid_quirk_hp_nc8430 -- [Needs quirk] Huge font in GDM on HP Compaq nc8430 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/380009 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server 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
