[Bug 1495819] [NEW] Lower resolutions are not getting listed in list under Display settings

 

Public bug reported:

I have Ubuntu 14.04  and my Monitor also supports lower resolution like 640x480 and 720x400.
I am able to see this supported resolutions using xrandr command 
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1920 x 1080, maximum 32767 x 32767
VGA1 connected primary 1920x1080+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 527mm x 297mm
   1920x1080      60.0*+
   1600x900       60.0 +
   1280x1024      75.0     60.0  
   1152x864       75.0  
   1024x768       75.1     60.0  
   800x600        75.0     60.3  
   640x480        75.0     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  

But the minimum resolution visible in the UI of Display settings is
800x600 and i could not see the lower resolutions by default.

The lower resolutions become available in the list only if i set the
desired minimum resolution using xrandr command.

Why is the Display not able to read the edid and show up all the
resolutions of xrandr in the list?
