Some progress since then. I created a new xorg.conf file and put some of the settings from previous file in there. I tired to use gcon-editor and saw that: /gnome/screen/default/0 rate: "This key has no schema" resolution "This key has no schema"
although the values are ok (75 and 1024x768) The gnome screen resolution tool still doesn't allow me to set the res to 1024x768 ... screen flickers... I will now try to use the Virtual parameter in the xorg.conf and report with included files and logs. -- xorg;conf lost at hardy upgrade, screen resolution cannot be set https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/239964 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
