Description Braden McDaniel 2010-06-30 05:45:34 UTC

Description of problem:
As of the 0.0.16-7.20100423git13c1043.fc13 update, resolutions above 1280x720 are now unavailable when using an NEC LCD3090WQXi monitor. This monitor has a native resolution of 2560x1600; and that resolution was available (and used by default) prior to this update. I am observing this same problem on both and ION machine and one with a 9800GT card.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
0.0.16-7.20100423git13c1043.fc13

Possibly related to this: system-config-display now crashes on startup with the following terminal output:

$ system-config-display

Nothing changed in -7 which could have caused this.

Can you post /var/log/Xorg.0.log and the output of "dmesg" please.

I suspected the update since it happened around the same time; but this turned out to be a monitor issue.
