Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
Hello,
I tried Feisty Herd 2 (as live CD), and it has the same problem as Edgy Eft:
The screen in graphical environment is skewed; autodetection uses the vesa
driver.
This is a regression from Dapper - there it worked fine.
I have some photos of the problem at flickr:
My screen is 1400x1050, Graphics card is Mobility Radeon X1450, laptop
is ASUS F2JE.
I tried to follow instructions at DebuggingXAutoconfiguration, I will attach
the outputs soon.
But what surprises me is that the xorg.conf for Dapper and Feisty is the same,
but there is no problem in Dapper.
I tried to reconfigure xserver-xorg, and the screen was no longer skewed, but,
the resolution was 1024x768, which is not desirable. (This happened even though
only 1400x1050 was set in the config.)
The only difference between Dapper's, skewed and low-resolution xorg.conf is
always the HorizSync and VertRefresh parameters.
I will be glad if I can help to resolve this issue by providing
additional information.
