Public bug reported: I have an AOC external monitor, connected to my laptop. After the update below, My computer is unable to properly recognize the screen parameters.
It sees the display and can use it but not with the correct parameters. xrandr -q provides this info. DP1 connected 1024x768+0+312 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 0mm x 0mm 1024x768 60.0* 800x600 60.3 56.2 848x480 60.0 640x480 59.9 It should show settings up to 1920x1080. I have tried manually adding the mode using xrandr, but it just ignores the new settings. sudo apt-cache policy libwxgtk2.8-0 libwxgtk2.8-0: Installed: 2.8.12.1-14ubuntu1.1 Candidate: 2.8.12.1-14ubuntu1.1 Version table: *** 2.8.12.1-14ubuntu1.1 0 500 http://mirrors.cat.pdx.edu/ubuntu/ saucy-updates/universe amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 2.8.12.1-14ubuntu1 0 500 http://mirrors.cat.pdx.edu/ubuntu/ saucy/universe amd64 Packages ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 13.10 Package: libwxgtk2.8-0 2.8.12.1-14ubuntu1.1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.11.0-13.20-generic 3.11.6 Uname: Linux 3.11.0-13-generic x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.12.5-0ubuntu2.1 Architecture: amd64 Date: Tue Nov 12 09:37:35 2013 DistributionChannelDescriptor: # This is a distribution channel descriptor # For more information see http://wiki.ubuntu.com/DistributionChannelDescriptor canonical-oem-somerville-precise-amd64-20120703-2 EcryptfsInUse: Yes InstallationDate: Installed on 2013-05-15 (180 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 12.04 "Precise" - Build amd64 LIVE Binary 20120703-15:08 MarkForUpload: True SourcePackage: wxwidgets2.8 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to saucy on 2013-10-25 (18 days ago) ** Affects: wxwidgets2.8 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug saucy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1250548 Title: After the libwxgtk-2.8-0 update, Ubuntu does not properly recognize my external monitor.
