No monitor configuration options in the genome screen resolution capplet is a serious limitation and is poor design. Users who encounter this problem face a long and frustrating process of trying to fix Xorg's inability to properly detect the video modes their hardware can support. This is an option that should never have been removed and should remain a part of the capplet in all future versions in the event Xorg fails to properly detect video settings. This is a common sense option that most users would expect to find. The lack of this option in the current versions of Ubuntu has forced many new users to abandon the operating system because there is no simple solution to fix the screen resolution issue. The addition of this option to the screen resolution capplet must be regarded as "Critical". -- Michael "TheZorch" Haney thezo...@gmail.com -- can't configure display resolution (monitor, graphics card) manually in gui https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/240916 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
