Hi Neil,

Have you had a chance to test this against the Jaunty release?

It sounds like the issue is a monitor capabilities-detection issue
rather than a bug in -intel itself (so I'm reassigning), however a newer
version of that driver is available at this PPA:
https://edge.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/x-updates/

Meanwhile, you can capture a dump of what X is parsing for EDID via this
command (which requires X be running, but you can run it from a vt
console):  'DISPLAY=:0 xrandr --verbose'  - this info will be useful in
case the monitor has to be quirked.

Also run 'sudo ddcprobe > ddcprobe.txt' to get the DDC info, which may
be what X is using instead of EDID.

The output of 'lspci -vvnn > lspci-vvnn.txt' could also be useful.

For more info on analyzing this type of problem, please see
