Public bug reported: My NVIDIA GeForce 6200 has 3 outputs: DVI, VGA, TV-out. In ubuntu 13.04 and 13.10 nouveau driver detects output connection status incorrectly. If I connect DVI cable only, nouveau thinks than both VGA and TV-out connected. If I connect VGA cable only, it thinks DVI and TV-out connected.
Wrong connection status leads to wrong resolution selection. Monitor connected to DVI/VGA reports preferred resolution 1600x1200, but Xorg ignores it because it thinks monitor is not connected. Instead it uses TV-out settings with 1024x768 resolution. The only workarround I've found is to append video=1600x1200 to kernel command line. ** Affects: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Attachment added: "kern.log-dvi-nouveau" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1258374/+attachment/3924062/+files/kern.log-dvi-nouveau -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1258374 Title: [NV44A] GeForce 6200 output status inverted To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-nouveau/+bug/1258374/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
