[Bug 458571] Re: Fullscreen scaling mode by default on intel GMA with KMS

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xorg
  
  When I use KMS on my notebook with 16:10 LVDS, Xorg defaults to
  fullscreen scaling mode. That causes incorrect aspect ratio for non-
  native 4:3 modes (they are scaled to 16:10).
  
  After running `xrandr --output LVDS1 --set "scaling mode" Aspect` is
  works as without KMS. E.g. 4:3 modes are displayed with black bar on
  sides.
  
  This default setting is especially  annoying when running fullscreen
  games and is hard to solve for unexperienced users.
