Public bug reported:
I'm running 7.04 with LTSP and thin clients with NVIDIA cards.
Overall working Ok, however machines with widescreens seem not to be getting
the correct resolution.
Further examination reveals that the resolution lines in xorg.conf begin with;
"1440x1440 1280x1024 ..." as opposed to;
"1440x900 1280x1024 ..." as they should be.
As a test, I've Ctrl-Alt-F1'd to a console and logged in.
Then done dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, and followed the menus by hand,
selecting resolutions of "1440x900" and "1280x1024" and this generates the
correct resolutions inthe xorg.conf. A ctrl-alt-backspace then yields the
correct widescreen resolution of 1440x900.
i.e. resolution detection is not working properly.
If I run up Linux on the thin client (off it's hard disk) screen resolution /
detection works fine out of the box.
Are the flags that can be passed to dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg on
thin client boot-up that will tell it to make a more sensible guess at
the thin client resolution ?
