You have been subscribed to a public bug: When I plug a monitor to my PC the monitors app doesn't offer the correct resolutions to choose from and the only way to use it is to select one well below of what the monitor supports. Randomly it offers the correct resolutions for a little while.
I have experienced this bug in two Laptops one using a Samsung monitor model number: lr23ws and another using a 40" Samsung HDTV. I have read online that other people are having the same issue with different monitors of different brands. Ubuntu works perfectly on my laptop as long as I don't try to plug a monitor but I have a Desktop in which I simply can't install Ubuntu because it doesn't detect my monitor and I cannot use my $200 secondary monitor with my laptop because the correct resolutions aren't detected neither. I have experienced this bug since Ubuntu 9.10 and I have reported it before, the problem is not with multi-monitor support but actually with making work a single monitor at all. Not being able to connect a monitor should have more priority than what little is being given. ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- No SINGLE Monitor support https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/780092 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
