[Bug 382864] [NEW] xrandr cycling is all messed up with KMS

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

I have a Lenovo ThinkPad with a Fn+F7 key that's used to cycle video
output configurations (handled via gnome-settings-daemon).  Prior to
switching to KMS in karmic, I would get four output options: LVDS on/VGA
off, LVDS off/VGA on, mirrored at max LVDS resolution, and mirrored at
max VGA resolution.  After switching to KMS, I now get three options:
LVDS on/VGA off, mirrored at max VGA resolution, and mirrored at
1024x768.

According to xrandr, 1024x768 is the highest resolution that's common to
the two outputs; but it's very ugly on both... and there's no option to
turn off the LVDS output.

If I use gnome-display-properties or xrandr, I can manually shut off the
LVDS display with no problem, but something seems to have changed to
cause gnome-settings-daemon to no longer expose this as a default
configuration.
