** Description changed: This is in an i386 Intrepid on an openchrome system (which crashes so I'm trying to use Vesa until I can figure out something - probably interrupts). http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?p=6027629 discusses a similar problem. Vesa comes up in 800x600. There is no official way in intrepid to set it to the correct resolution of 1024x768. The "gksu displayconfig-gtk" if I select both Vesa and 1024x768, test successfully and say keep will set my display. I have this leftover from hardy or gutsy. The gnome-display-properties cannot be made to find my LCD monitor in my laptop, nor is there any way to set it manually to an LCD so it only allows the default 800x600 resolution. I can find no way to manually select a display under Intrepid, and the automatic detection doesn't work. Either bring back displayconfig-gtk or add an equivalent manual setup that does not involve editing xorg.conf with vim. - Detect Displays apparently does nothing - I don't know if it is causing - an error, or simply detecting the wrong thing, but there needs to be an - override. + Detect Displays apparently does nothing - I don't know if it is causing an error, or simply detecting the wrong thing, but there needs to be an override. + [lspci] + 00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: VIA Technologies, Inc.
