I finally found a way to get the correct screen resolution on the output. In the nvidia-settings utility there is a section called DFP-0 where there is a "Flat Panel Scaling" box. In that box I disabled "Force Full GPU Scaling"
The "Flat Panel Information" claims the native resolution of my projector is 1280x800 (which is incorrect). So something autodetects the resolution as 1280x800 and set the GPU to do the scaling such that the projector doesn't have to do it. This should help narrow down the location of the bug. But disabling "Force Full GPU Scaling" is a suitable workaround. Now I just need to figure out how to make the change permanent. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gnome-control-center in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/959343 Title: Incorrect screen resolution To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center/+bug/959343/+subscriptions -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
