[Bug 620329] [NEW] Radeon Xorg starts in "low graphics" mode

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xorg

Testing Maverick alpha 2 (kubuntu). When booting off the live CD, a GTK
dialog pops up saying "Ubuntu is running in low graphics mode". I looked
at the logs, and there were no obvious problems: it detected the correct
chipset (X1400), and the two monitors (the laptop's built-in as well as
the Dell external monitor). However, I did notice a line saying "Setting
physical screen size to 270x203".

>From the "low graphics" menu, I tried to select "Configure X" but that
didn't do anything. Eventually I elected to restart X. This brought up
KDE, though everything started in 1024x768 and I had to manually set the
resolution to 1920x1080.
