Hi, i'm having the same problem. My videocard is an ATI 4850. My Monitor is a Samsung 2243 BW. When i start display preferences my cpu usage jumps to 100%(xorg). After a while the display properties show up, saying "unknown monitor". If i look at mail xorg.log during the startup i see a listing of possibly resolutions get repeated over and over(Printing DDC gathered Modelines:)
I have attached xorg.log ** Attachment added: "Xorg.0.log" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/26087478/Xorg.0.log -- Display Preferences causes 100% CPU usage and does not open correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/366757 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
