Hi Bryce, I made a test under Jaunty alpha 3 with all available updates. I don't known if it matters but I use a 64bit version of Jaunty.
The behavior under Jaunty has improved a little : Resolutions on both monitor (external one and laptop panel) are correct (ie. preferred resolution of each monitor) !! But : 1/ The laptop panel (LVDS) is still enabled (even when the lid is closed). 2/ Both monitor display the same things (clone mode). But as the resolution on both display are different, it creates some artifacts : - The laptop panel shows up only a part of the image - If you launch for example synaptic by the administration, gksu only darkens a 1280x800 rectangle (1280x800 being the resolution of the laptop panel) on the external monitor (the one with the biggest resolution). See screenshot attached. ** Attachment added: "Capture.png" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21444377/Capture.png -- [i965] 965GM gives a wrong screen resolution on laptop used with an external display https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/272669 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
