** Description changed: SW: Kubuntu Feisty (up-to-date) HW: HP nw8240 with ATI FireGL V5000 PCIE (x700), 15.4" LCD (1920x1200, 145 DPI) I update fesity daily, and after the update yesterday afternoon, my X does not start any more. After the boot, when I should get kdm login dialog, I just get blank screen. When inspecting log file, it looks like that display is not detected any more. After adding sync ranges to the Monitor section, I got X back, but screen size was not detected properly, causing DPI to be set to 75 (instead of 145), making fonts really small. I have fixed this with adding DisplaySize in monitor section. These are all the changes I had to do: --- xorg.conf 2007-03-08 08:11:44.000000000 +0100 +++ /etc/X11/xorg.conf 2007-03-08 08:19:31.000000000 +0100 @@ -108,6 +108,9 @@ - Section "Monitor" - Identifier "Generic Monitor" - Option "DPMS" + Section "Monitor" + Identifier "Generic Monitor" + Option "DPMS" + HorizSync 28-96 + VertRefresh 43-60 + DisplaySize 330 210 - EndSection - + EndSection I have looked what have changed recently and it seems to me that recent update of ati driver for bug 22985 might have caused that. Note: I was one of the reporters of that bug, but it was fixed for me just before Edgy release: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-ati/+bug/22985/comments/72
