I'm not sure why, but its detecting that you've got a TV connected, probing 1024x768 as the biggest mode its capable of, and that is whats causing your problem:
(II) intel(0): Printing probed modes for output TV (II) intel(0): Modeline "1024x768"x30.0 26.89 1024 1025 1088 1120 768 769 800 801 (24.0 kHz) (II) intel(0): Modeline "800x600"x30.0 17.00 800 801 864 896 600 601 632 633 (19.0 kHz) (II) intel(0): Modeline "848x480"x30.0 14.51 848 849 912 944 480 481 512 513 (15.4 kHz) (II) intel(0): Modeline "640x480"x30.0 11.31 640 641 704 736 480 481 512 513 (15.4 kHz) What sort of TV out connector does the laptop have? (Do you have anything plugged into it? Nothing broken off in the socket?) As far as I know, the hardware detects the TV connection by its electrical loading, so I don't know why its being confused here. -- GNOME panels are smaller than detected and set resolution https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152416 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
