Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-intel
The following are my findings on testing the intel video driver (C2D
MacBook) in combination with the Canon RS02 Projector.
1) Power down the laptop, connect projector and reboot:
- display is mirrored on the projector, although a bit off-center.
- at gdm login load the projector complains it can no longer detect display.
- post login attempting to mirror the display on projector fails (xrandr
--output VGA --auto, etc)
- Screen Resolution tool does not detect projector
2) Power on laptop sans projector, plugin post login:
- display is mirrored on projector, 1024x768 resolution (MacBook is 1280x800)
- Screen Resolution tool does not detect projector (see attached screenshot)
- Testing "upside down" rotation garbles projector display
- Reverting to "normal" fixes garbled output.
- Testing "left" rotation garbles projector (although not as bad)
- Testing "right" rotation garbles projector to the same extent as "left"
- "Detect Displays" makes projector flickr but no additional items are
reported in Screen Resolution tool.
- Switching to "Clone Screens" within Screen Resolution tool and attempting
rotation garbles both displays.
- Video playback (VLC) displays properly on projector, blue-screen within
player on MacBook
- Video playback (MPlayer) displays properly on projector, black-screen
within player on MacBook
These tests were run using Ubuntu 8.04 "hardy" with -proposed enabled
(2.6.24-17-generic) and the xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.2.1-1ubuntu13
driver.
