[Bug 819449] Re: Dell Latitude x300 notebook screen display problem

 

Same here on dell x300 with  lubuntu 11..04 updated form 10.10
the workarround:
Create a file : $HOME/force_1024.sh with this text ...

#!/bin/bash
# 
xrandr -s 800x600
xrandr -s 1024x768


Create a second file in $HOME/.config/autostart/force_1024.desktop with this text ...
(this does the trick for you every login startup)

[Desktop Entry] 
Type=Application
Exec=$HOME/force_1024.sh


next: I will look for grub configuration because now i have no boot menu or ttys (CTR-ALT-F1  to F6)

another issue:   While login prompt, you can see a black area in the
screens botton, if you close the laptop it disapear for a moment,
apparing a second later again.


Hope this helps someone.

Jota
