nVidia Quadro NVS 285-Cannot increase resolution subsequent to reducing it
Last modified: 2009-07-14 13:37:20 EDT
Description of problem: Changing the screen resolution using system-config-display to a lower resolution results in the user being stuck at the specified lower resolution without the option of selecting the higher or previous resolution the next time. The only way I've found to get the original highest resolution setting back is to run system-config-display from a virtual console whereby a complete list of resolutions (supported and unsupported) is presented again. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): system-config-display-1.0.51-9.fc9.noarch How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: 1. s-c-d while at 1280 x 1024 2. set resolution to 800 x 600 3. log out and back in again 4. s-c-d while at 800 x 600 Actual results: no option to switch to 1280 x 1024 Additional info: graphics card nVidia Corporation NV44 [Quadro NVS 285] (rev a1) see screen prints and X log

1) I can't reproduce this on i965 2) This doesn't affect installation 3) This is easily worked around with the randr configuration tool Moving to F9Target.
Changing version to '9' as part of upcoming Fedora 9 GA. More information and reason for this action is here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
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 It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.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: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Fedora 9 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2009-07-10. Fedora 9 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. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
