Public bug reported:
I had an opportunity to discuss a few days ago with members of Dell's
Ubuntu support team the known failure of their popular Dell 2405 FPW
widescreen monitor to provide EDID information.
These Dell staff told me that they had provided Canonical with
information necessary to allow automatic identification of this monitor
and to file a bug if it did not work in current versions of Ubuntu.
Hence this bug report based on my current installation of Kubuntu Hardy
Alpha 4.
The resolutions, horizontal and vertical refresh rates in the
automatically generated xorg.conf are all wrong:
HorizSync 30.0 - 110.0 # should be 30 kHz to 81 kHz
VertRefresh 50.0 - 150.0 # should be 56 Hz to 76 Hz
... <snip> ...
Modes "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600"
"640x480" # should include 1920x1200
** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
