[Bug 311910] Re: [RV250] Black screen on lower resolutions on Dell Latitude D600

 

** Description changed:

  Since the upgrade to Ubuntu 8.10, I can no longer switch to lower
  resolutions than 1400x1050 on my Dell Latitude D600 laptop when using
  the Open Source ATI Radeon driver in X. When switching to a lower
  resolution the screen goes black.
  
  Lower resolutions work without problems on the terminal screens (CTRL+F1
  to CTRL+F6), they also work without problems in X when using the vesa
  driver.
  
  I tried adding the Option "NoDCC" to xorg.conf, but Xorg.0.log showed
  that this option was ignored. Adding the Option "IgnoreEDID" also didn't
  make a difference, but I'm also not sure if it was actually used.
  
  Attached is my current xorg.log.
  [lspci]
  00:00.0 Host bridge [0600]: Intel Corporation 82855PM Processor to I/O Controller [8086:3340] (rev 03)

+ The problems is also in Ubuntu 9.04. (Tested with a LiveCD and with my upgraded system.)
