Hrm. I don't seem to have asked whether this bug is still present when kernel modesetting is disabled, which is a bit of an oversight! Has disabling kernel modesetting and reverting to user modesetting been tried?
Adding “nomodeset” to the kernel command line will disable kernel modesetting. This will give a slightly worse boot experience - the splash screen will not be high-resolution, and will not seamlessly transition to X, but should otherwise function as normal. If that sets the resolution correctly then we've got a workaround and a successful codepath to compare to. -- [i965q] Fujitsu Siemens Esprimo E: changing resolution results in non working X https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/586325 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is the registrant for xf86-video-intel. _______________________________________________ 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
