lugburz, I don't have any intention of maintaining my idea for its own sake, and you seem to have demonstrated well that the 2.4 is able to get the EDID information from the external monitor. Could you attach Xorg.0.log with ModeDebug and the xorg.conf that you use for 2.4? Do I understand you right in that you have to add a Display subsection to the Screen section to set a bigger virtual for it to work with 2.4 and that this does not work with 2.6.3?
Would you mind testing Karmic alpha-2 available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/9.10/ or a recent daily-live image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/ ? If the problem is still there, could you attach the same information for that case (Xorg.0.log with ModeDebug and output of `xrandr --verbose`)? With this information we should be able to send the bug upstream. Would you be able and willing to follow up questions from upstream and test fixes they may provide? -- [i945] i945 don't recognize 1440x900 on external monitor in jaunty https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/376722 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
