Viewsonic VA2216w monitor reports OUT OF RANGE when X starts during Live CD boot procedure or full install. This is a 22inch 1680*1...@60hz monitor common in retail outlets. Same bug was in 9.04 as well. The X display works with the Nvidia restricted drivers (GeForce 7050 PV / NVIDIA nForce 630a graphics chipset on motherboard) but it is far from easy for new users.
I know the monitor is reporting the error and not Ubuntu but the fact remains Ubuntu has a major show stopping bug for new users with commonly available kit. -- Monitor reports: screen resolution "out of range" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/182270 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
