You're probably talking about 915resolution from http://915resolution .mango-lang.org/ However, the chipset of the U160 is not supported (last update of i915resolution was in 2007) and the author hasn't (yet) responded. Even if it would be supported, I don't think it would lead us to anything useable. I tried to bypass the chipset detection and forced it to detect a 915G. It then actually finds a couple of modes, but none that matches the resolution of the panel: Mode 30 : 640x480, 8 bits/pixel Mode 32 : 800x600, 8 bits/pixel Mode 34 : 1024x768, 8 bits/pixel Mode 38 : 1280x1024, 8 bits/pixel Mode 3a : 1600x1200, 8 bits/pixel Mode 3c : 1920x1440, 8 bits/pixel (and then all of the above resolutions with 16 and 32 bits/pixel). -- [lucid][maverick][i915] Lenovo U160 Intel i7 620UM blank screen https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/608907 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
