Xorg log

Description of problem:
Fails to detect correct display geometry - causing options to placed off screen

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
f20 anaconda at date of bug

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install with graphic anaconda on Dell monitor  1703FP
2.
3.

Actual results:
Display geometry incorrect - graphic items off screen

Expected results:
Properly detected display

Additional info:
Necessary info seems to appear in X.Org log - so why can't gnome or anaconda use it?
Also, gnome displays at 640x480 instead of optimum 1280x1024
This has worked fine before - so, it's a regression

Comment 1 Fedora End Of Life 2015-05-29 11:07:23 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 20 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 20. 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bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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 EOL if it remains open with a Fedora  'version'
of '20'.

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.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora 20 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, you are encouraged  change the 'version' to a later Fedora 
version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.

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.

Comment 2 Fedora End Of Life 2015-06-29 19:12:40 UTC
Fedora 20 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-06-23. Fedora 20 is
no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further
security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. If you
are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against the
current release. If you experience problems, please add a comment to this
bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
