I don't understand what you mean by "100% zoom", but I understand the need for correct DPI. > Your reasoning leads to having to modify xorg.conf each time I switch, which > means twice per day in my case... We can assign monitor sections per-connector for randr-1.2 drivers, so we can easily arrange for the LVDS to always be right (since you presumably never change which monitor is attached to it). So in the case where monitors are swapped regularly, I guess this still is a problem. I still think that changing the default behaviour now is a bad idea. So let's get a server option to enable autodetection. I think someone posted a patch for that earlier... -- 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/521877 Title: [gm45] wrong screen size detected on X200s To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/521877/+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
