Description Bill Nottingham 2008-03-12 20:36:04 UTC
Description of problem:

i965 attached via DVI to a Dell 20" 2005FPW.

xrandr happily lets me pick a 1920x1080 resolution. Pretty sure this display is
supposed to max out at 1680x1050.

[foo@dhcp231-48 ~]$ DISPLAY=:0 xrandr
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 1680 x 1050, maximum 1920 x 1920
VGA disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)

If chosen, I get a static screenshot of the desktop running at 1680x1050 while
the monitor is set to 1920x1080 (and is tinted blue.)  Mouse pointer works, but
the display does not update.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

I lied. Sometimes it works at that mode (but still has a bluish tint.)

Comment 4 Bug Zapper 2008-05-14 06:00:06 UTC
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA.

Comment 5 Bug Zapper 2009-06-09 23:44:46 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 9 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 9.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '9'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 9's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 9 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here:

Comment 6 Bill Nottingham 2009-06-10 15:10:45 UTC
Works now.
