Thanks for the hwinfo/printf tip. My widescreen LCD monitor doesn't even support 1600x1200 so setting that in SUM causes grub to fault when loading my kernel (although allowing me to continue booting with a safe resolution after a delay).
hwinfo --monitor isn't accurate, neither is read-edid/get-edid/parse-edid on my setup (nvidia propriety drivers) I also tried xrandr which fails with nvidia twinview. xresprobe/ddcprobe, discover, cvt, gtf and glxinfo are all useless. I can't imagine another way of detecting max monitor resolution. Offering all resolutions the graphics card has available is a start, at least it would save someone like me finding this thread and posting this. -- Missing display resolutions in "boot options" tab https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190261 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
