Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I sincerely apologize if this is a duplicate. I didn't see any bug reports that directly dealt with the "monitor doesn't support reduced blanking" problem on my specific Intel chipset. I tried the "nomodeline" kernel boot parameter trick, as I found in another bug report, and I still was unable to use my laptop's native resolution (1920x1200). I noticed in the Xorg log that the reduced blanking message appeared next to the mode I would like to use, which is why I think this may be the most relevant clue to the problem. This is a brand new laptop, and I haven't really got a lot invested in it yet, so I'm currently attempting a dist-upgrade to Lucid to see if the newer kernel, etc. will solve my problem or not. It would be good to know if this problem has already been fixed, for the purposes of assigning importance to this report. I'd be happy to provide any additional information I can!
