Excellent point. However I did not explain myself in that we do still plan on providing users with the means to set an arbitrary fake resolution. Whether or not we add common fake resolutions like 1024x768 to the modes list is all this bug needs to be about.
I would like to say such fake resolutions should not appear in the modes list, since there are countless possible fake resolutions and it would also be nice to distinguish hardware modes from faked modes. However I am aware of existing cases where games like to enumerate and select from a fixed list of modes. So maybe we will have to do this sooner. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xorg-server in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1196239 Title: Add support for fake modes on laptop screens which only have one To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/canonical-devices-system-image/+bug/1196239/+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
