Public bug reported: I have an Eizo EV2333WH-BK 23" monitor with 1920x1080 (16:9) as its native resolution and a motherboard with built-in Intel 82G965 graphics chipset. The monitor is connected via VGA cable.
This worked perfectly with Ubuntu Oneiric. On Precise automatic installation chooses 1680x1050 (16:10) which is once not the native resolution of the monitor and second, not the correct aspect ratio. If I open the "Displays" part of the System Settings and choose "1920x1080 (16:9)" manually, the GPU crashes with a completely messed up image and no possibility to stop this by switching to a text console. The computer actually switches on Ctrl+Alt+F1 (as a subsequent Ctrl+Alt+Del works) but the console does not get visible. The image does not change. Only rebooting via Ctrl+Alt+F1 and Ctrl+Alt+Del works and the display only gets correct after the complete shutdown when the PC returns into the BIOS. till@till-desktop:~$ lspci [...] 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation 82G965 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 02) [...] ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Changed in: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-intel in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/999056 Title: REGRESSION: 1920x1080 (standard HDTV) resolution with Intel graphics not working any more To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/999056/+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
