Can you please attach your /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the output of `xrandr --query`?
I tried reproducing this, but it seems to work on my system: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xrandr --output TV --set TV_FORMAT PAL [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ Would you mind re-testing this on Intrepid to see if it still occurs for you with the -intel 2.3.2 (or newer) driver? ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged => Incomplete -- xrandr set any parameter failed with x error https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/178282 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
