[Bug 135557] Re: [i965gm] Kubuntu: Screen dimensions of external monitor not correct on X server startup (intel driver)

 

Hi 7oby,

well, ...

1) Keith describes that with the current algorigthm _his_ LVDS used the
native (i.e. best) resolution.  So he stopped after 'works-for-me'
(perfectly fine for the first start).  If this would be the case for me
too, everything would be alright too ;) As this is not the case, and the
algorithm fails miserably in result visible, I had to write this bug
report and bug 437173.

2) I could not try you 'fix dpi' setting, as the user took the laptop
with him again, nevertheless this would be a workaround (but thx for
pointing me to the setting). I reported it in the hope it can be fixed.
Back on topic: agreeing on one dpi is fine (in the first step) but when
the high resolution monitor is turned off with xrandr, the dpi (as
xrandr and xdpyinfo report them) should be changed to the native
resolution of the only remaining monitor (96dpi) and not stay at 147
dpi.
