** Description changed: Description: Ubuntu 12.04 LTS Release: 12.04 xserver-xorg-video-intel: Installed: 2:2.17.0-1ubuntu4 compiz: Installed: 1:0.9.7.8-0ubuntu1.2 linux-image-generic: Installed: 3.2.0.27.29 OS Type: 64 bit Recently, external monitor output from my laptop has started being wavy and hard to see. Additionally the screen resolution on the laptop monitor does not seem to be correct (output does not fill entire screen). It is almost as if the resolution for the external monitor and the refresh rate for the internal LCD displays were being switched. This behaviour is definitely a regression from versions of Ubuntu prior to Precise, but may also be a recent regression on Precise itself (I am not sure when I last tried an external monitor). I also note that I randomly get "Ubuntu has encountered an error" messages that appear with or without an external monitor and occasionally Compiz dies, but I have no idea if these are connected to the problems I am having with the external monitor. - This behaviour would seem similar to Bug #614238, but a fix has - supposedly been released for that bug some time ago. + This behaviour would seem similar to Bug #614238, but a fix has supposedly been released for that bug some time ago. + --- + AlsaVersion: Advanced Linux Sound Architecture Driver Version 1.0.24. + ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu11 + Architecture: amd64 + ArecordDevices: + **** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices **** + card 0: PCH [HDA Intel PCH], device 0: STAC92xx Analog [STAC92xx Analog] + Subdevices: 1/1 + Subdevice #0: subdevice #0 + AudioDevicesInUse: + USER PID ACCESS COMMAND + /dev/snd/controlC0: dmk 1913 F.... pulseaudio + CRDA: Error: command ['iw', 'reg', 'get'] failed with exit code 1: nl80211 not found. + Card0.Amixer.info: + Card hw:0 'PCH'/'HDA Intel PCH at 0xe1c60000 irq 46' + Mixer name : 'Intel CougarPoint HDMI' + Components : 'HDA:111d76e7,102804a9,00100102 HDA:80862805,80860101,00100000' + Controls : 37 + Simple ctrls : 13 + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 + HibernationDevice: RESUME=UUID=be2bc815-c5b7-4e99-88ed-aa2f178df431 + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.10 "Oneiric Ocelot" - Release amd64 (20111012) + MachineType: Dell Inc.
