I think this is happening to me also. I tried sudo dpkg-reconfigure xserver-xorg, but with no video questions i think that is a dead end. I tried sudo displayconfig-gtk, but it is ignoring my monitor. Here's what I receive when i push the test button:
on_button_test_config_clicked() xauth: creating new authority file /tmp/dcg-BlL39Z8610/xauthority Got pid 8628 (0, 0) checkpoint 1 None False Sorry, this configuration video card driver and monitor doesn't appear to work: Messages from the X server: (EE) I810(0): Cannot read V_BIOS (3) (EE) I810(0): VBE initialization failed. (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration. Fatal server error: I tried sudo dexconf, I am not sure what it actually does, but i thought it wouldn't hurt to try. And I cannot see any real change after this command. It did whatever but no signs of improvement. I have a Nvidia card that usually works after I enable restricted device driver for it, but not this time. I uninstalled all Nvidia software,drivers,ect and try another method that usually works as a backup and that EnvyNG, but once again, same 320x240 resolution with no other options except downgrading to Xubuntu 7.10 which is okay but could someone let me know if this ever gets back to normal? Could something that usually relays the info to xserver-xorg be busted or possibly someone removed some lines of code or something? I am not sure and don't know how to check it myself. I don't have the time anytime soon but could someone check and see if anybody has reported this to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/ and if it has not been reported, Please make a bug report there linking back to this page and come back here and link to that page so we can follow it? -- [HARDY] xserver-xorg does not auto-configure correctly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/207409 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
