[Bug 413788] Re: [ubuntu karmic] intel-video finds correct screen size but sets it incorrectly

 

** Description changed:

  A fresh karmic-alpha4 install on a computer with motherboard Intel
  D945GCLF2 (w. atom330) and an IBM 14" flat screen with native resolution
  of 1024x768.
  
  As can be seen in the attached screenshot (taken by camera) the Display
  Preferences show that the monitor is correctly recognized as being
  1024x768, but the desktop is extending beyond the edges of the screen;
  the maximized Synaptic window does not fit on the screen. The reason is
  that, as visible from the OSD of the monitor, the resoltíon provided by
  the vga outlet is actually 1152x900.
  
  xrandr also states a max res of 1024x768 at 60Hz being available, but
  this is not what the monitor receives.
  
  I can, via Dispplay Preferences set resolutions on 800x600, 0r 640x480,
  and both desktop image and OSD agree. But then setting it back to
  1024x768 results in the above described inconsistency.
  
  The monitor does behave correctly in other setups.
