I can confirm the reported behavior of the display failing to return to its original resolution after a 20-second timeout. I can't say what happens if you click on a button in the dialog, because when I have changed the resolution, my screen is garbled because of bug #138087 such that I can't see any buttons to click.
In combination, these two bugs (#138087 and #222297) mean that if I make any attempt to change the resolution, my screen ends up garbled and I have no way to recover other than killing the X server or rebooting. -- [hardy] screen resolution: "Use previous settings" fails https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222297 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
