Ok, so here is the workaround... while we expect for a solution. Considering my xorg file above, I added in "programs at session startup", the following command:
xrandr --output default --mode 1280x1024 This uses the Modeline as defined in the xorg.conf file, and thus now the xorg log shows: ... [ 3836.645] (II) No input driver specified, ignoring this device. [ 3836.645] (II) This device may have been added with another device file. [ 3836.994] (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1280x1024_60" [ 3842.916] (II) NVIDIA(0): Setting mode "1280x1024_85+0+0" [ 3844.405] (II) XKB: reuse xkmfile /var/lib/xkb/server- A49B0D9CDBFA4DEADEE9D72BD5A2170E273505F0.xkm As you can see, still the faulty setting to 60hz followed by the setting to 85hz due to the session startup program xrandr -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/949071 Title: CRT monitor refresh setting always resets to 60 after reboot To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-settings/+bug/949071/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ 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
