[Bug 684591] [NEW] vga monitor not detected

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-ati

1) The release of Ubuntu you are using, via 'lsb_release -rd' or System
-> About Ubuntu.

"You are using Ubuntu 10.10
                - the Maverick Meerkat - released in October 2010 and supported until April 2012."

2) The version of the package you are using, via 'apt-cache policy
packagename' or by checking in Synaptic.

Package: xserver-xorg-video-radeon
Source: xserver-xorg-video-ati
Version: 1:6.13.1-1ubuntu5

3) What you expected to happen

I expected my (Samsung SyncMaster 1100p Plus) monitor to be detected and
X to know about display modes it can support.

4) What happened instead

It shows up as "unknown" and I had to manually configure the modes
(which involved cvt/xrandr and gdm config files)
