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 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 60, in update_ui label.set_text(_("%s with %s")%(self.state.get_monitor_name(), self.state.get_videocard_name())) UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 14-16: invalid data Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 60, in update_ui label.set_text(_("%s with %s")%(self.state.get_monitor_name(), self.state.get_videocard_name())) UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 14-16: invalid data Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xconf.py", line 378, in <module> dialog = xConfigDialog.XConfigDialog(hardware_state, xconfig, videocard.VideoCardInfo()) File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 658, in __init__ self.update_ui() File "/usr/share/system-config-display/xConfigDialog.py", line 60, in update_ui label.set_text(_("%s with %s")%(self.state.get_monitor_name(), self.state.get_videocard_name())) UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf8' codec can't decode bytes in position 14-16: invalid data
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.
