I believe this should be easy to address- all that needs to happen is when you set your monitor resolution, it should automatically set log in screen/ splash screen etc
until that happens I found the following solution id anyone else needs a work around: http://chrisjakeway.wordpress.com/2010/05/19/ubuntu-10-04-default-login- screen-gdm-resolution/ >From a Ubuntu terminal or command prompt, list the available video modes and the name of the output device (in this case “default”): $ sudo xrandr Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1024 x 768, maximum 1180 x 885 default connected 1024×768+0+0 0mm x 0mm 800×600 60.0 56.0 0.0 640×480 60.0 0.0 320×240 0.0 400×300 0.0 512×384 0.0 1024×768 0.0* . . . To set a new default for the login screen: $ sudo gedit /etc/gdm/Init/Default Look for the lines: PATH=/usr/bin:$PATH OLD_IFS=$IFS Immediately following those lines add in: xrandr --output default --mode 1024x768 Where “default” is the name of the screen output to configure and 1024×768 is the desired gdm resolution. -- 4:3 monitor not supported in login, install, switch user etc https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/576469 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-ati 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
