[Bug 500117] [NEW] kde bad screen resolution after login

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

I don't know what I did but from now on I can't succeed to have the right screen resolution when my system starts.
Exactly, It seems resolution is right by the login step, then my profile is loaded and resolution becomes 640x480 though I forced my xorg.conf by putting only "Modes "1280x800" in the Screen Section.

I have to shell "xrandr --output default --mode 1280x800" so as to get
the right one.

My problem must be linked to something wrong with my fglrx drivers, because now though aticonfig runs fine, I can't launch amdcccle (catalyst center) nor fglrxinfo, both return :
"X Error of failed request:  BadRequest (invalid request code or no such operation)
  Major opcode of failed request:  143 (GLX)
  Minor opcode of failed request:  19 (X_GLXQueryServerString)
  Serial number of failed request:  17
  Current serial number in output stream:  17"

Then If I go in kubuntu monitor settings and then set the right
resolution, It changes completely my xorg.conf and restarting the system
leads to a login screen with the wrong resolution as well as a wrong
resolution getting to the desktop.

My fglrx drivers comes from "ati-driver-installer-9-3-x86.x86_64.run"

Anyway, here are all the information about my system:
