The man page of xrandr states: "If invoked without any option, it will dump the state of the outputs, showing the existing modes for each of them" So xrandr for some unknown reason reports resolutions far higher than actually supported by the hardware. -- xrandr reports wrong resolution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/260847 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
