This is identical to my submissions to Bug report #217004, as is shown by the Xorg.0.log files I have attached in both bug reports. The 1024x768 mode is rejected on both systems for the same reason -
"(II) VESA(0): Not using built-in mode "1024x768" (width too large for virtual size)" There really needs to be a way of overriding the automatic mode limitation - back to user-selected screen modes - in the configuration program. Older equipment may not conform to current standards, while still being very useable. Note that several other distros handle this monitor correctly. At any rate, this should have the same priority as bug #217004, or be considered a duplicate. -- dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg fails on Dell PowerEdge 400sc with ati and Samsung SyncMaster 570s https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/255561 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
