[Bug 445531] Re: intel gma 950 still not working in 9.04 or 9.10

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
  
  Bug showed up in 9.04, never resolved.  Using 9.10 (beta) right now and
  bug is still there, identical results.  Using 64 bit version, with
  standard recognized xserver-xorg-video-intel driver for onboard intel
  945g graphics driving a Viewsonic G810 21" VGA monitor.  On other OSs,
  ideal resolution is 1280x960@85hz.  This option is not offered in
  System>Prefs>Display.  Closest to this are 1280x1024@75 (5:4, scrunched)
  and 1152x864@75 (whole screen is off to right side).  Have tried
  Synaptic PM to find updated intel 950 driver, have tried messing with
  xorg.conf files, all with no results or change.  In fact, the only
  refresh rates offered are 60 or 75hz, and they are locked to various
  resolutions, but none are ideal or even usable.  Again, earlier
  drivers/kernels appeared to work - ex., 8.04 with a little tweaking gave
  great results with intel gma 950.  Starting with 9.04, all heck broke
  loose.
  
  Synaptic PM reports driver as xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.8.1-1ubuntu2
