Public bug reported: Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
I run Ubuntu 9/04 on a Macbook with the following graphics card: 00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) 00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/GME, 943/940GML Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03) By default everything works fine. Then I plug in an external monitor with resolution 1920x1200. I start the resolution config app and set external monitor's resolution to 1920x1200. I get a popup saying that I need to enable virtual desktop size to xorg.conf. I do that and restart X. When I log in, xserver has changed to Mesa software rendering. If I go and remove the virtual size setting from xorg.conf, I get DRI HW acceleration, but the external monitor's resolution goes to 1024x768. So I can either get native resolution OR hw accelerated OpenGl. But not both. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Virtual desktop size setting disables HW acceleration https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/373634 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
