Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xorg
OS: 8.10 With undetected monitor, an error dialog is opened telling ubuntu is running in low-resolution mode besides this: (EE) MGA(0): Static buffer allocation failed, not initializing the DRI (EE) MGA(0): Need at least 9216 kB video memory at this resolution, bit depth It happens even if you have defined monitor properties in xorg.conf. Whereas when you boot with a detected monitor and empty xorg.conf, 1024x768 mode works fine an no error dialog is displayed. However, Xorg.0.log contains the previously mentioned two lines even then; please see the attachment. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Can not get 1024x768 video mode by undetected monitor and Matrox G100 8MB graphics adapter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/319363 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
