That would be a possible explanation, yes... however I'm not completely sure... any way to try and confirm this diagnostic for sure ? > I don't think there's a bug here, so I suggest you try setting the > wanted resolution on the kernel command line (video=1280x1024 should > work). Closing this bug, thanks for your report. > I'd be perfectly happy to have one bug less open on the kernel, but I think there's a problem here that is not fixed at all. Of course, I could manage to workaround by passing args to the kernel, but that looks like a regression from end user perspective : how comes that without KMS things work OK, and with, it doesn't ? Maybe it could be reassigned to another faulty package ? Maybe the problem is not with the kernel and with the X driver, then, as I have : Option "IgnoreEDID" "on" Option "PanelSize" "1280x1024" in /etc/X11/xorg.conf If I get it right, with KMS, if 1280x1024 is not detected as a valid mode by the kernel, but then, shouldn't the PanelSize setting be observed anyway by the radeon driver ? Should I reassign to xserver-xorg-video-radeon instead (I'm reopening then) ? Thanks in advance for your opinion.
