[Bug 350234] [NEW] Wrong screen resolution with HDMI TV

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Hi, 
after upgrading to jaunty beta I still have that problem: 

My PC is connected to the HDMI port of a LCD TV. Unfortunately, that TV
is labeled as "HD Ready" and thus announces all HD TV resolutions on the
HDMI port. Therefore, the PC is not able to recognize the real
resolution of the panel and chooses just anyone.

I can easily fix this problem by running

   xrandr -s 1440x900

after login, but that's exactly the problem, that I need to login first
in order to run it. The login screen already has the wrong resolution.

Is there any way to have the xorg driver choose a manually given
resolution from start? I did not find a hint in the xorg.conf manpage.
It just allows to give the screen size in millimeters.

regards
