[Bug 378532] Re: Fewer display resolutions after upgrading to Jaunty with GeForce4

 

** Description changed:

  After a clean install of Jaunty, Display Settings no longer detects
  resolutions above 800x600 for my monitor (LG L1770GQ).  I attempted to
  add the undetected resolutions by adding a mode in xrandr as described
  in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/X/Config/Resolution.
  
  Running "gtf 1280 1024 60" returned
  
   "# 1280x1024 @ 60.00 Hz (GTF) hsync: 63.60 kHz; pclk: 108.88 MHz
    Modeline "1280x1024_60.00"  108.88  1280 1360 1496 1712  1024 1025 1028 1060  -HSync +Vsync"
  
  So, I attempted "xrandr --newmode "1280x1024" 108.88  1280 1360 1496
  1712  1024 1025 1028 1060  -HSync +Vsync", followed by "xrandr --addmode
  default 1280x1024".  Unfortunately "xrandr --output default --mode
  1280x1024" returned "xrandr: Configure crtc 0 failed"
  
  Strangely enough, all resolutions are automagically detected when using
  vesa, but of course I'd prefer to use nv.
  
  I'm out of ideas here.  Help please.
