Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I am using a Sony TX2 laptop which is shipped with Intel 915 onboard graphic. I have checked the new Intel driver with the second Ubuntu Gutsy Live CD (Tribe 3) which is shipped with the xserver-xorg-video-intel (2:2.1.0-1ubuntu1) driver and Xorg 7.3 git. It works fine with my external monitor (1680x1050) if I change the driver from "i810" to "intel" in xorg.conf but it doesn't shut down the LFP like the old i810-modesetting driver. It always show an extract of the external on the LFP (1366x768). It is possible with xrandr to disable LFP (xrandr --output LVDS --off) but Video watching or 3D animations are still impossible because of huge lags and displaced output. It seems that the monitor was disabled but the graphic card doesn't realized that. I don't have this problems with videos with i810-modesetting since this disables the monitor in xorg.conf with MonitorLayout. But since i810-modesetting couldn't display my native laptop resolution I have to switch between the standard i810 driver (the Feisty intel driver couldn't display 1366x768 too) and modesetting everytime I want to use the external or the internal. ** Affects: xorg-server (upstream) Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Bug watch added: Freedesktop Bugzilla #11722 https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11722 ** Also affects: xorg-server (upstream) via https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11722 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- [gutsy] animations and video watching aren't possible with an external monitor on an Intel laptop https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/129025 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
