[Bug 575605] Re: Displayn detection fails in Lucid - laptop + Nvidia 7000

 

** Description changed:

- Acer 5520 series, model ICW50   laptop computer
- nVidia C67 GeForce 7000M / nForce 610M (rev a2)
- Build-in LCD panel native resolution 1280x800
- Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
- Kernel: 2.6.32-22-generic #33 amd_64
+ Description:
+ Lucid fails to detect correct display resolution 1280x800 and falls back to 1034x768 which is dizzy / ugly on that panel, fonts turn difficult to read.   Trying manually to raise resolution to 1280x800 using "xrandr":
+ xrandr --newmode "1280x800"   83.50  1280 1352 1480 1680  800 803 809 831 -hsync +vsync
+ xrandr --addmode default 1280x800
+ xrandr -s 1280x800
+ Failed to change the screen configuration!

+ WORKAROUND: Boot with "nomodeset" results in clean startup with limited
+ resolution. Installing proprietary GeForce drivers succeeds at that
