Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: displayconfig-gtk
Description:
displayconfig-gtk produces non correct xorg.conf file for "Xinerama"
mode and conflicts with gnome-display-properties settings for "Clone"
mode on Intel GMA950 graphics card on Thinkpad Z61m. Default resolution
of notebook is 1280x800. I want to have 1024x768 for both displays when
using Clone or Xinerama mode for presentations.
Clone mode:
Clone mode works with GDM and 1024x768 for both displays. But as soon as
I start Gnome, Gnome has a virtual resolution of 1280x800. That means I
can move around in the desktop because physical resolution is still
correctly 1024x768. Produced xorg.conf for Clone mode seems to be OK but
It seems that gnome-display-config sets display size for Gnome to
1280x800.
I think gnome-display-properties should completely removed and replaced
with displayconfig-gtk in Gutsy. Otherwise these two will conflict with
each other. And it is very confusing for users if they have to setup two
display config tools...
Xinerama mode:
X doesn't start up. I'll attach error logs and xorg.conf
