[Bug 582336] Re: KMS / nouveau incorrectly detects TV-out

 

I have a similar situation with nouveau on Lucid. I'm running a self-
compiled 2.6.33 kernel on a PPC computer, but Ubuntu's regular nouveau
and drm packages.

X is running stable, but the (non-X) terminal resolution is low, the
background picture in gdm and gnome has a "low-resolution copy" in the
upper left corner, and Firefox only expands its bookmarks menu within
that reduced area (720x576 instead of 1440x900, probably).

xrandr output is as follows:

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1440 x 900, maximum 4096 x 4096
DVI-D-1 connected 1440x900+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 367mm x 229mm
   1440x900       59.9* 
VGA-1 disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
TV-1 connected 720x576+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm
   720x576        50.0*+
   1024x768       50.0  
   800x600        50.0  
   720x480        50.0  
   640x480        50.0  
   400x300       100.0  
   320x240       100.0  
   320x200       100.0  

There is no TV connected to this computer!

I filed a bug on freedesktop.org, closer to the source, where I also describe a provisional fix:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=29455

My chipset is detected by nouveau as "NVIDIA NV18".
