You have been subscribed to a public bug: I'm running current release of Lucid Lynx desktop version and trying to use 1080p with this TV. This report includes description of the released official (non-RC) 10.04 LTS desktop version. BIOS is now the latest 0028 version.
Two tests: 1. Connect HDMI from motherboard to Onkyo amplifier and from Onkyo amplifier to TV: " Onkyo 7" " text shown in display settings. 2. Connect HDMI from motherboard directly to TV: " Samsung 7 " text shown in display settings. The first setup is the one I'm planning to use. What happens is that in both tests 1 and 2 couple of centimeters (1 inch) is missing at least from top and bottom of the screen (probably also from left and right). I can't see any menus but they are there if I scroll the mouse "outside" the visible area and click there. A workaround to this problem is to use "Screen Fit" option in the TV, not "16:9". The "Screen Fit" option has to be used with both 1920 x 1080 (16:9) and 1280 x 720 (16:9) resolutions. The resolutions seem to be correct however: if I take a screenshot then it is exactly 1280 x 720. In summary, there are three problems with this TV: 1) "Screen Fit" option has to be selected. 2) "Searching for Signals" problem in 1920 x 1080: it starts when scrolling in Firefox or moving windows. 3) Flickering problem in 1920 x 1080: the picture "tears", this may include problem 2. 4) No HDMI audio. There is only a faint "click" sound when trying to play audio. Scrolling in Firefox usually causes symptom 2 but the "Searching for Signals" text may disappear and the picture comes back if scrolling back. Flickering in problem 3 may disappear if moving the window back, but it starts again especially if window is on the border of the screen. Problems 2 and 3 do not occur with resolution 1280 x 720 so it is full HD specific. I also tried to install the latest PPA kernel (2.6.34-999). With this kernel problem 4 vanishes and the HDMI audio is played correctly. Also problem 3 is much less severe with the kernel update. Anyway even with the kernel update problems 1 and 2 remain. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- Samsung LE-46B530 TV does not work with Intel DH55HC motherboard https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/572139 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in ubuntu. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
