[Bug 1197902] Re: Display corruption on 29" 2560x1080 monitor

 

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer
to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest
v3.11 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following
tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag:
'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, for example it will not boot, please add the tag: 'kernel-unable-to-test-upstream'.
Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".


Thanks in advance.

Title:
  Display corruption on 29" 2560x1080 monitor

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a 29" monitor that supports a native resolution of 2560x1080.
  Using the nouveau driver with kernel mode setting correctly set the
  resolution of the display, as indicated in the gnome-control-center ->
  display configuration utility, but the display appears to running at a
  much lower apparent resolution.  Text is almost unreadable, everything
  appears incredibly "fuzzy".  I attempted to use the proprietary nvidia
  drivers, and after using the nvidia-xconfig utility to generate a
  xorg.conf file and restarting the machine it is indeed using the
  proprietary driver and hardware acceleration is working, but the fuzzy
  condition persists.

  I am using Ubuntu 13.04, I have updated all the packages.
