[Bug 466083] [NEW] SwitchView KVM blocks monitor ident back to computer so install defaults video res

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

When I run a command-line application that attempts to determine attribs
of the monitor, it reports that it can't determine the attribs.

I forget the name of the app, that was months ago, last time I tried to
get this box to work.

Problem is, I don't get a chance anywhere to tell the bloomin thing that
I know what the monitor stats are and I can specify them.

Used to be so 'simple' (actually it was a pain, but at least it was
doable) by diddling xorg.conf (if memory serves -  like I said, months
ago).

But I tried, months ago, adding a xorg.conf, or whatever, and the result
was nada, nothing, no joy.
