[Bug 574946] Re: VGA video ignores mode set in xorg.conf

 

apport information

** Tags added: apport-collected

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
  
  I've got a wide-screen monitor which supports 1680x1050.
  
  However, when I start up the system, it displays a 1360x768 resolution
  on VGA, even though I have the following in my xorg.conf:
  
  Section "Screen"
          Identifier      "Default Screen"
          Monitor         "Configured Monitor"
          Device          "Configured Video Device"
          SubSection "Display"
                  Modes "1680x1050"
          EndSubSection
  EndSection
  
  It works fine in DVI.
  
  It works fine both with VGA and DVI when fglrx is on
  
  It used to work (on both VGA and DVI, even without fglrx) in 9.04
