Public bug reported:
I downloaded & installed the 8.04 release candidate and noted the
following problem:
After the default installation and switching to nvidia driver using the
hardware applet, I have some problems with the screen resolution and
refresh rate:
1) By default, Ubuntu uses [EMAIL PROTECTED] which flickers very much and
destroys my eyes. (I think a 85 Hz mode should be selected by default)
2) So I tried to change the resolution to [EMAIL PROTECTED] using System /
Settings / Screen resolution. Now, there is the option "Clone screens" -
I don't understand this because I only have one screen. At the 1280x1024
resolution, the refresh rates 51 Hz and 50 Hz are possible which is
incorrect because when I use the "50 Hz", it uses 75 Hz in real
(according to my eyes and the monitor menu). When I switch to 1152x864,
I can select 57 Hz or 56 Hz and I have to select 56 Hz to get 85 Hz in
real. This is really weird.
