["Christopher M. Penalver" <christopher.m.penalver@xxxxxxxxx>]

Peter Mansvelder, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't
been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an
issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development
release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from
http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in
the development release from a Terminal
(Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather
and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p linux <replace-with-bug-number>

Also, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.12

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

Title:
  monitor resolution not found with intel driver

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs

  I have Ubuntu 10.10 installed on a foxconn motherboard with intel built-in graphics; I have an IIyama Prolite 2250MTS touchscreen attached, and the touch function work flawlessly (kudos for that!). I only have a problem with the monitor resolution: I can't get the native resolution of 1920x1080 to work. I think it's a problem with the intel driver:
  - when I startup gdm, X crashes with an error message in /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

  [248685.933] (II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa
  [248685.934] (II) FBDEV: driver for framebuffer: fbdev

  Fatal server error:

  [248685.952] 


  The only way to start up is to make a basic xorg.conf with the lines:
  Section "Device"
          Identifier      "Configured Video Device"
          Driver          "vesa" # Change this to the driver you want
  EndSection

  Section "Monitor"
          Identifier      "Configured Monitor"
  EndSection

  Section "Screen"
          Identifier      "Default Screen"
          Monitor         "Configured Monitor"
          Device          "Configured Video Device"
  EndSection

  This was X starts up, with resolutions up to 1600x1200, but not with the native resolution of 1920x1080.
