Title:
xf86-video-geode: 800x480 and 1024x600 Panel support is broken
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-geode” package in Ubuntu:
Fix Committed
Status in “xserver-xorg-video-geode” package in Debian:
Fix Released
Bug description:
Geode driver do not display 1024x600 resolution in (K)UNR Karmic.
Actually, the bug also affects Jaunty, but doesnt affect Intrepid.
I used to use a custom xorg.conf in intrepid, but it doesnt work on
Jaunty or Karmic. In Jaunty and karmic, I could only use 1024x768
whick makes the screen bigger than the real display and is impossible
to open new programs, specially in the menus (they simply disapear in
the bottom of the screen).
Further investigations on other distros made me think this is a
regression from the xserver-xorg-video-geode 2.10.1-2. This bug
affects all drivers from 2.10.1 (which is in Intrepid). In fact,
Debian Lenny (that uses geode 2.10.1-2) works perfectly, VectorLinux
6.0 lite (that uses geode 2.9 - i think), also works. Jaunty (geode
2.11.1-1) and Karmic (2.11.4.1-1) dont work, they only display
1024x768...
Actually, when I use the automatic configuration in Jaunty and Karmic
(with no xorg.conf), the screen really seems to be 1024x768, but when
I use the custom xorg.conf (the same I use in Intrepid), the screen
seems different... like it was 800x768 (I know it's wierd, but it
doesnt seem to be 1024x768 at all - everything is really ugly).
Hope it will work in Karmic in time.
Thanks in advance.
