It seems that xorg.conf doesn't exist in ubuntu 11.10 or xubuntu 11.10. I'm running xubuntu 11.10. It boots in a flaky sort of way. During boot, it gives me "Input Not Supported" floating all over the screen, and then after a while it figures out this problem and then boots correctly.
Seems to me it wouldn't be too difficult for the very smart ubuntu programmers, when the OS produces the "Input Not Supported" error or if the monitor is "unknown", to have the OS ask the user for information about the monitor, the type of monitor and the resolution and the refresh rate, and then test these settings and "Is this correct?" and "Do you want to keep these settings?". I hope something like this is done next version of ubuntu and xubuntu. Automatic hardware detection is great but if it doesn't work in a given case, the OS should fall back on asking a question (and testing). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/498173 Title: Acer X193W refresh rate not detected correctly To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-180/+bug/498173/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
