[Launchpad Bug Tracker <472522@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

The system (Deskpro EN p733) is connected to a Philips 107B monitor.
When I try to change the resolution, ubuntu does not recognise the
display type, but it does offer several resolution variants.  If I
select 1024*768 (which suits my old eyes much better than the original)
everything works fine - until I reboot.  Then I get a screen which seems
to have versions of the display (slightly displaced) on top of each
other.  The computer worked fine at 1024*768 with Windows 2000.

Disconcertingly if then I try one of the safe variants of login, I can
eventually get in, BUT my wireless connection is lost.

This sounds to me like the back end end of some peripheral control file
has been lost when the system shuts down.

regards
Peter
