Title:
can't configure display resolution (monitor, graphics card) manually
in gui

I had forgotten about this yet another thing Ubuntu refuses to even
provide a workaround much less fix.
Some quick notes - yes I want this fixed too (actually I've abandoned
Ubuntu - they will ruin notifications, but not put a refresh in the
network manager which is similarly broken, nor fix it -

I was finally able to give an old laptop the 1024 x 768 resolution I
knew the LCD could do (from the 800 x 600 + large gray border around it
it did do because Ubuntu 9.10 did a monitor not detected on me) by
adding an xorg.conf text file in /etc/X11 with just the following few
lines only:

I have been hit by the monitor not detected problem too, and at several

Well, as the bug i reported was marked as a duplicate of this one
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260436), which I agree with, i'm
leaving a comment to remark that this behavior not only happens for
undetected monitors, but with most cheap KVM switches out there (which
make the video card unable
As a workaround, for those who can run command line tools, there's instructions
how to generate the appropriate modelines and where to stick them in xorg.conf

I was told by someone in an Ubuntu support mailing list that you can
make a copy of the xorg.conf file that has the proper video card and
monitor configurations and overwrite the xorg.conf file in a new
install which doesn't properly detect these settings and the copied
file will work.

Eric, that just means you're using a 4:3 resolution on a 16:9 or 16:10
monitor or something. Maybe you're using -vesa, which has very limited
support for widescreen resolutions. In any case, it's a lesser detail
and not directly relevant to this bug report.

those comment about how things are urgent and have to be fixed now will
not make those fixed faster, quite the contrary if you insist on blaming
the graphical tool where the issue is also in infrastructure it's using,
nobody disagree that should be fixed but that's not as easy as you seem
to think
It is horribly difficult to put back an existing manual configuration
utility that was present in a recent version? That is the original
solution I wanted.
Fixing every possible permutation of hardware in the automatic config
would be horribly difficult, but that seems to be the only thing you

Saying that this is a harder than you might think problem to fix is
a cop out. How hard is it to add a manual configuration tab to the
screen resolution app so you can tell X Windows to use X type
monitor settings when its auto-configuration method gets it wrong.

one of those infernal integrated Motherboards (has AGP video and sound,
etc., integrated). I think it is an intel video set. Ubuntu does allow
my monitor to run at 1024 by 768, but doesn't recognize it and lists it
