Description of problem: When configuring the display here, I get only modelines for 1280x800 and 768x576. Before I was able to also get 800x600 and 640x480, which I need for some/many external overhead projectors. But now those modes don't work. As the relevant modelines haven't changed from earlier X.org configuration files, I presume some bug that allowed to use resolutions without modelines was fixed in the interim... please unfix ;-) [This is a Toshiba notebook, and it is broken in that it can use either the LCD panel or an external screen, but only (!) if plugged in on bootup, no switching or using both; the panel resolution is irrelevant when using an external screen, and viceversa] Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.0.1-8 (which is not one of the listed components, BTW) How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:

Or has the X server been configured for those modes, but is rejecting them? > As the relevant modelines haven't changed from earlier X.org configuration > files, I presume some bug that allowed to use resolutions without modelines was > fixed in the interim... please unfix ;-) We haven't changed anything of the sort.' > xorg-x11-server-Xorg-1.0.1-8 (which is not one of the listed components, BTW) This is the correct component, as bugzilla components are that of the source code rpm (src.rpm). Always attach your X server log and config file to all X server or video driver related bug reports, as individual uncompressed file attachments, as they are almost always useful to engineering, and it saves a round trip of having to wait for them to be attached at a later time. Thanks in advance.
Created attachment 125975 [details] xorg.conf
When using system-config-display, I only get modelines for large sizes, not the standard (800x600, 640x400) ones, and I can't use them. If I place them into the xorg.conf file Section Screen, SubSection Display, Modes, I can't select them at all. Only the standard 1280x800 mode works. If I delete the standard modes, I can use the low modes... but only them.
This should be working as of s-c-d 1.0.45-1 and later. Please test and reopen if this bug still occurs for you.
