[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 725600] Re: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected
We're closing this bug since it is has been some time with no response from the original reporter. However, if the issue still exists please feel free to reopen with the requested information. Also, if you could, please test against the latest development version of Ubuntu, since this confirms the bug is one we may be able to pass upstream for help. ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Expired -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725600 Title: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/725600/+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
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 725600] Re: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected
Hey popey, You filed this bug report against natty, but I see it's still open and doesn't appear to have much activity recently. So, now that oneiric is released and stable, this may be a good point for you to upgrade and re-test if this issue is still present there. If it's solved in the new release and you think it's worth backporting the fix, please indicate that. Or if having the fix in the new release is good enough, feel free to close out the bug (or let us know and we'll close it.) If it's not solved, leave the bug report open. I can't promise we'll get to it (we get way more bugs filed than we can usually get to), but your testing and feedback can help out if and when we do. ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: Confirmed = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725600 Title: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers/+bug/725600/+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

[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 725600] Re: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected
Well, even with just one attached the log makes it pretty clear that -nvidia doesn't much like your monitor. Hmm, by chance does it work properly when you boot into Classic Desktop (no effects)? Perhaps [26.834] (WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): The EDID read for display device CRT-0 is invalid: [26.834] (WW) NVIDIA(GPU-0): unrecognized EDID Header. I assume it makes no difference whether you're running Classic Desktop (no effects), vs. Unity? (Sometimes that makes a difference, but I'm guessing not in this case.) Not sure there's much we can do to help in this case, since the EDID handling code is internal to the proprietary driver. For a workaround you can try hand-crafting an xorg.conf either by providing horizontal and vertical sync rates and your preferred resolution, or by providing an edid override. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725600 Title: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected ___ 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 725600] Re: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected
Yeah looks like it's definitely unhappy about your monitors' EDIDs. You don't have any adapters or other hardware connected between the computer and the monitors do you? I take it you were running nouveau previously, and was able to correctly configure to 1680x1050 via gnome-display-properties? I assume you're using TwinView to do the dual head action, which presumably depends on EDID being available and accurate, so that's probably why it lets you change up to 1366x768. If you boot with only one of the viewsonics (and no TwinView), does the same issue occur? ** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Status: New = Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers in ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/725600 Title: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected ___ 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 725600] Re: nvidia EDID issue, wrong resolution selected
The only hardware between the card and the monitor is the little dongle that converts DVI to VGA. These have always been connected to the card. I was previously running okay with nouveau, and yes, had both displays at 1680x1050. Yes, I switch on twinview in nvidia-settings. I have now booted with only one display connected.
