Public bug reported: After updates on my Raring Ringtail install a couple days ago, Ubuntu no longer displays at my laptop's real resolution of 1366x768 anymore. It displays instead in a square 1024x768 box in the center of my screen instead, with black rectangles on either side of the screen. Figuring the problem might just have been a buggy update, I made a LiveUSB with a fresh ISO and can confirm the bug is there in the live session, too.
Note that GRUB and Plymouth still display suing the whole display at full resolution. The bug is visible in the login screen and the desktop. I have not overwritten my current Raring install yet, so I can go back to that for additional debugging work if need be. I'm filing this bug report from within the LiveUSB session using xdiagnose. This is a pretty nasty regression and I'd like the sides of my screen back, please. :) A screenshot of the problem on my HDD install is available here: https://plus.google.com/109509247327281928543/posts/EeGWaDrfQij ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.04 Package: xorg 1:7.7+1ubuntu4 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.8.0-13.22-generic 3.8.3 Uname: Linux 3.8.0-13-generic x86_64 .tmp.unity.support.test.0: ApportVersion: 2.9.1-0ubuntu1 Architecture: amd64 CasperVersion: 1.330 CompizPlugins: No value set for `/apps/compiz-1/general/screen0/options/active_plugins' CompositorRunning: compiz CompositorUnredirectDriverBlacklist: '(nouveau|Intel).*Mesa 8.0' CompositorUnredirectFSW: true Date: Wed Mar 20 01:01:23 2013 DistUpgraded: Fresh install DistroCodename: raring DistroVariant: ubuntu ExtraDebuggingInterest: Yes, if not too technical GraphicsCard: Intel Corporation Mobile 4 Series Chipset Integrated Graphics Controller [8086:2a42] (rev 07) (prog-if 00 [VGA controller]) Subsystem: Toshiba America Info Systems Device [1179:ff10] Subsystem: Toshiba America Info Systems Device [1179:ff10] LiveMediaBuild: Ubuntu 13.04 "Raring Ringtail" - Alpha amd64 (20130318) MachineType: TOSHIBA Satellite A505 MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash ProcKernelCmdLine: noprompt cdrom-detect/try-usb=true file=/cdrom/preseed/username.seed boot=casper initrd=/casper/initrd.lz quiet splash -- maybe-ubiquity SourcePackage: xorg UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) dmi.bios.date: 05/25/2010 dmi.bios.vendor: INSYDE dmi.bios.version: 1.80 dmi.board.asset.tag: Base Board Asset Tag dmi.board.name: Portable PC dmi.board.vendor: TOSHIBA dmi.board.version: Base Board Version dmi.chassis.asset.tag: No Asset Tag dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacturer dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnINSYDE:bvr1.80:bd05/25/2010:svnTOSHIBA:pnSatelliteA505:pvrPSAP0U-007007:rvnTOSHIBA:rnPortablePC:rvrBaseBoardVersion:cvnChassisManufacturer:ct10:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.name: Satellite A505 dmi.product.version: PSAP0U-007007 dmi.sys.vendor: TOSHIBA version.compiz: compiz 1:0.9.9~daily13.03.08-0ubuntu1 version.ia32-libs: ia32-libs N/A version.libdrm2: libdrm2 2.4.42-0ubuntu2 version.libgl1-mesa-dri: libgl1-mesa-dri 9.0.3-0ubuntu1 version.libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental: libgl1-mesa-dri-experimental N/A version.libgl1-mesa-glx: libgl1-mesa-glx 9.0.3-0ubuntu1 version.xserver-xorg-core: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.13.3-0ubuntu2b1 version.xserver-xorg-input-evdev: xserver-xorg-input-evdev 1:2.7.3-0ubuntu2b2 version.xserver-xorg-video-ati: xserver-xorg-video-ati 1:7.1.0-0ubuntu1b1 version.xserver-xorg-video-intel: xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.21.4-0ubuntu1b1 version.xserver-xorg-video-nouveau: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau 1:1.0.6-0ubuntu3b1 xserver.bootTime: Tue Mar 19 20:57:56 2013 xserver.configfile: default xserver.errors: xserver.logfile: /var/log/Xorg.0.log xserver.version: 2:1.13.3-0ubuntu2b1 xserver.video_driver: intel ** Affects: xorg (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug compiz-0.9 raring ubuntu -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1157503 Title: 1024x768 is the highest resolution available on Toshiba Satellite A505-S6960 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xorg/+bug/1157503/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
