since version 6.7.192 the analog output of my radeon 9700 on the dvi-i connector (with dvi->vga adapter) is broken. i use only one monitor, it's connected to the dvi-i port with adapter and vga-cable. when gdm comes up (i can hear the sound) the screen stays completely black. after switching to tty1 and back to X the image is displayed, but at very bad quality. its much too bright and bright areas cast bright "shadows" to the right. lowering gamma does not fix this. if i use the card's vga-connector instead of dvi+adapter it works as intended and quality is ok, but as the analog signal on dvi used to be of better quality, i'd like to continue using it. i found this via google and i think it describes the same problem: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/xorg/2007-September/028228.html this problem still exists in 6.7.194, tested with xserver-xorg-video- ati_6.7.194-1ubuntu1tv_i386.deb from http://ppa.launchpad.net/tormodvolden/ubuntu/pool/main/x/xserver-xorg- video-ati/ ps: analog output on dvi-i worked fine with 6.6.x ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-ati (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: Invalid -- [gutsy][9700] analog output on DVI-I broken https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/145198 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to the bug report. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
