The login screen is something like a user of the system, but I don't know which it is. So if we knew this user, it should be possible to set the display resolution for this user.
I have the same problem and had it with each and every version of Ubuntu. My preferred resolution is 1152x864 at 75Hz. The login screen comes with 1600x1200 at 75Hz (in theory my CRT could do this, but practically it won't sync, so I must change the resolution somehow). A too high resolution or frequency can cause damages on display hardware! -- Login screen has wrong resolution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/222444 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to linux-restricted-modules-2.6.24 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
