Public bug reported: The screen is a LCD Citizen C19604HD that should run 1440x 900 at 60 Hz (as per manual). Upon entering the desktop the session is also excessively large, 1224 x 768 (4:3) and only allows a worse setting of 800 x 600 (4:3).
I must say, that every once in a while, Display panel will show the following available (I've tried all of them) resolutions. The problem is that they're usually not accessible. For the sake of completeness, I'll list them all, although I'm only really interested in the top one. 1440 x 900 1366 x 768 1360 x 768 1280 x 1024 1280 x 960 1280 x 800 1280 x 768 1152 x 864 1024 x 768 1024 x 576 832 x 624 800 x 600 When confronted with the black screen, I've tried editing xorg.conf, but that's resulted in black screens, even black ttys, forcing me to do the following workaround: -boot up on a live-cd, -mount the HD and -sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf -reboot onto the HD ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1047146 Title: xorg fails to configure native 1440 x 900 on LCD widescreen To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1047146/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
