Hi Patrik, I managed to get the proper resolution even with vesa. It doesn't help with the cursor but here are the steps:
*I increased the monitor frequency settings and now the vesa driver is able to find a suiteable one. I don't know whether it is a normal vesa mode but my graphic card contains some valid modes which I can see e.g. in grub: vbemodes (or similar). Strange that a LCD monitor still requires a frequency range!?? * First I tried to specify the modeline used in the framebuffer mode which I obtained with fbset -x. Nevertheless the vesa driver fails to recognise this mode "(no mode of this name)". A bug? * All this I did without gma500_gfx kernel module. Once I load it the display flickers again so I do not like it. But it seems that I'm able to suspend with pm-suspend only with this module. Without, the display never wakes up and stays off after resume. I tried also various --quirk-* options without gma500_gfx for suspend. * After loading gma500_gfx (and possible resume from suspend state) I find also modesettings options in the X log file. Yes, you're right. I have a nice orange Sony Vaio P device (VPCP11S1E) :-) ** Attachment added: "Updated x config file" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1187427/+attachment/3766475/+files/xorg.conf -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1187427 Title: Mouse cursor invisible To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1187427/+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
