Description of problem: On my Fedora 14 workstation, My ViewSonic VA2431wm monitor is detected without issue. However, when I connect that monitor to my ASUS notebook (via VGA adapter in both cases) and try to use it as a secondary monitor, it is not detected properly and only offers a maximum 1024x768 screen resolution instead of 1920x1080. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): Fedora 14. Linux 2.6.35.9-64.fc14.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Dec 3 12:19:41 UTC 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux How reproducible: Always. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Connect VA2431wm monitor to VGA port on a notebook computer. 2. Open display preferences and note the maximum resolution is 1024x768. 3. Actual results: Maximum resolution is 1024x768. Expected results: Maximum resolution should be 1920x1080. Additional info: I ran the following commands as root and was able to get full screen resolution out of the monitor: # xrandr --newmode "1920x1080_60.00_hsync" 148.50 1920 2008 2052 2200 1080 1084 1089 1125 +hsync +vsync # xrandr --addmode VGA-0 "1920x1080_60.00_hsync" # xrandr --output VGA-0 --mode "1920x1080_60.00_hsync" Note: the modeline setting above was taken from my PC's Xorg log file with the monitor attached.
This issue is not related to monitor-edid which is not used by system, but only for "inventory" purpose. Please, open a bug against the right component.
Remi, I am not familiar with the component layout of the Fedora project. Can you please suggest which component this might fit under?

This is silly. Please, reassign next time to the right component (or you can ask, or just throw it in the approximate direction).

Hi, Matej. I moved away the old logs, made the grub change, rebooted, and attached the resulting logs. I don't have an /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Thanks, and let me know if you need anything else.
This message is a notice that Fedora 14 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 14. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '14' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 14 reached 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 to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. 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
