[Bug 604571] [NEW] [Lucid] External screen is reported to be 70" instead of actual size 40"

 

Public bug reported:

I use a Sony Bravia KDL-40W4000 through HDMI, a 40" TV that is reported
as a 70". The same goes for my pioneer receiver which forwards a 70"
screen.

$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
Release: 10.04

$ uname -a
Linux htpc 2.6.35-020635rc4-generic #020635rc4 SMP Mon Jul 5 09:08:26 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux

$ apt-cache policy xserver-xorg
xserver-xorg:
Installed: 1:7.5+6ubuntu1~xorgedgers3~lucid


The problem occurs with both the latest original kernel 2.6.32 and the latest testing Ubuntu kernel 2.6.35-rc4. Also with the original xserver-xorg.
