Public bug reported:
X11-xserver-utils 7.6+3 Precise
When entered from a terminal the command
>xrandr --output DFP2 --set "scaling mode" "Full aspect"
Gives the following error:
X Error of failed request: BadName (named color or font does not exist)
Major opcode of failed request: 157 (RANDR)
Minor opcode of failed request: 11 (RRQueryOutputProperty)
Serial number of failed request: 35
Current serial number in output stream: 35
I use the ATI Proprietary FGLRX driver, does XRandR not use "scaling mode"
with this driver?
I am attempting to change the behaviour of the display when I attempt to
change screen resolutions in KDE, my monitor (Acer H233H) appears
'stuck' in 1920x1080. When I attempt to switch to a lower resolution,
ie, 1280x720 (which is listed as a valid mode), the monitor does not
actually change mode, the displayed screen shrinks, with large black
bars on all 4 sides. the displayed part of the screen is 1280x720, but,
I expected the screen to fill the monitor, not a section of it.
Thank you!
