@Martin, well reasoned about the aspect ratio. I also though that the virtual of 1024x768 might be too small, but it's the biggest resolution that was listed after the EDID information (but I didn't manually decode the hex EDID block). Interestingly, the Xorg.0.log actually says Output LVDS using initial mode 640x400 but in his monitors.xml sets the resolution to 1024x768, so it would be set to that upon login.
I also think it is a one-off configuration bug, but I'd like to exclude the possibility that the driver was changed to VESA and that the symptoms went away because of that. The requested information lets us check that. -- 1" black space either side of display area https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/371863 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
