Workaround found: Comment out the "Monitor" section in xorg.conf, and the "Monitor" entry in the "Screen" section. Add "MetaModes" and "Modes lines in the screen section of xorg.conf, like this:
Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Device0" # Monitor "Monitor0" Option "MetaModes" "1680x1050" DefaultDepth 24 SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1680x1050" EndSubSection Note that simply removing xorg.conf does not work, you only get the VESA driverif xorg.conf is removed. -- nouveau can't set screen resolution lucid 2.6.32-16 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/537745 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
